Heartbeat rate 8 weeks

I just went for my 8 week scan and was wondering what heartbeat rate you’ll got? Mine was 171bpm and wondering if its too high?

The "average" range is 140 to 170bpm, so 171bpm sounds perfectly fine to me. If you're worried, talk to your doctor. I've had 176bpm in the past and it was deemed perfect.

My ultrasound was performed at 8 weeks +4 days and heart rate was 176 bpm. My OB said this was a good strong heart beat!

I got a 172 bpm heart rate at my first ultrasound at 8wk+1, so I think this is pretty normal. It seems to go down over time.

My 10wk scan heartrate was in the 160s, then 140-145bpm at the 14wk/18wk scans.

My babies heart rate at 8.2 was 191!! I was terrified but the doctor wasn’t concerned. I was sure something was wrong. It came down to low 170s at 10 weeks and then 150s by 14 weeks.
