HR at early ultrasound?

in March 2013 Moms

My little bean had a heart rate of 113 at my first u/s.  I thought I was around 6 weeks 3 days or 4 days and measured 6 weeks 2 days.  My daughter was 123 at 6 weeks 4 days and I'm worried it was to low this time.

I keep reading so many different things and it is driving me nuts!

    Our bean's was 129 at 6 weeks 5 days and 134 at 7 weeks when I went in again for a bleeding scare. I remember the doctor saying specifically at our first appt that she wouldve also been happy if the heart rate was around 110. You are good. :)

    I had the exact same results.  I went in for an u/s at 6 weeks 4 days and my baby's HR was 113.  The RE said it's "perfect" and wanted to see it over 80.

    From what I understand, the presence of a heartbeat is more important than the rate itself this early. Ours was 125 at 6 w 6 d and our ob was pleased.

    Ok good, my OB sends you out for ultrasounds so they aren't done in office and the u/s techs don't say much :)

    At my U/S at 6w1d the HR was 100. The tech said that she wasn't concerned because that's still in the normal range for that "age", and that the heart rate increases something like 3bpm each day once it starts beating .... ? something like that. She said that if we were to come in even a day or 2 earlier, we may not even have seen the heartbeat.
