Hi.....I went for additional anatomy scan today at 27 weeks 1 day and everything was great....thank God....he said fetal heart rate 127......that is lower than it has been but at that point I didn't feel baby moving.....After scan was done he was moving around....Has anyone had that rate or similar? Thanks I had several miscarriages and am totally paranoid.  By the way Dr. said it was normal, but seemed a little low to me.....Again thanks for reading

    See above.

    Here's Dr. Google's second opinion:

      A normal fetal heart rate (FHR) usually ranges from 120 to 160 beats per minute (bpm) in the in utero period. It is measurable sonographically from around 6 weeks and the normal range varies during gestation, increasing to around 170 bpm at 10 weeks and decreasing from then to around 130 bpm at term.Fetal heart rate | Radiology Reference Article | Radiopaedia ...radiopaedia.org/articles/fetal-heart-rate

    My midwife says 110 to 160 is normal. My baby's heart rate hovers in the 120s and I have asked multiple times if this is ok. Each time, I get told it is perfect. Try not to worry. 

    ETA I'm almost 37 weeks.

    If your doctor said it was normal I don't know why you're worrying yourself. FWIW, that's where my babies heart rate has been my whole pregnancy. I'm past term and he has been healthy thus far.

    I've been told anything between 110-180bpm is normal. i wouldn't worry, especially when the doctor isn't.

    My DDs was always on the higher side 160-180's. This pregnancy (DS) has hovered around 120-130. According to my doctor and the 3 US I have had throughout my pregnancy, everything is fine.

    My baby's average is 140, but he varies from 135 to 145. I have , however, caught him as low as 126 when he was sleeping. I only know this cause I have a Doppler. :) My doctor assured me that anything from 120 to 160 is normal.

    Welp since you trust me more than the person with the medical degree I can 100% assure you everything is a-ok.
