I'll be 14 weeks tomorrow. I went to my doctors visit at 13 weeks and 3 days and my baby's BPM is 167. The Dr said that it is good. But I suffer from heart problems and am concerned because it said the top BPM for 12 weeks and on is 160. Anyone know if this is normal ?
Your doctor is going to know better than anyone here whether or not that is a healthy bpm for your baby. Assuming you gave your doctor a complete medical history they will know about your heart condition and would have advised if there was any concern.
My 12 week appt, the baby had a heart rate of 168. They say higher rates are girls lol. At 8 weeks, baby was at 183. Doctor was very pleased both times.
With my daughter her HR was 168 at our 12 week appt and stayed in the 160's for almost all the pregnancy. I would think your doctor would let you know if they were concerned or not.
Its completely normal. My daughter's was around that and so is this one's. Don't be surprised though if it drops a little in the next few weeks. That is completely normal also.
My first time hearing the heart beat at 12 weeks bpm was 176 it supposed to be faster in the beginning but when I went yesterday it was 150 my dr said it was normal
I was around 167 at 7 weeks, 150 at 10, 143 at 12 and 138 around 14. Dr said anything 120-160 is average. Every baby is different and their HB will fluctuate in utero, an after birth for awhile until everything regulates. You're a-ok!
