So this is my 4th but have had losses also. I had a scan at 10 weeks last week and the heart rate was 160 bpm? I thought it was meant to rise to like 170-180 at 10 weeks before it falls slights at 12 weeks ? Just worrying and hopeful it's me being irrational . Thanks ladies

@fizzyblush i had a scan at 10w4d and asked the sonographer what was normal, she said anything between 100-200 was considered fine which is just crazy to me! So I’d try not to worry 160 seems a good heartbeat to me xx

160 sounds perfect to me. Mine was the other way round, 180 at 8 weeks then 140 at 10 weeks so I was worrying about it being too high but then dropping alot. 17 weeks now and our little one is doing perfectly at 154bmp last check a couple of days ago. I think when it's still early it's a bit more all over the place but should settle down later. I was also told 100-200 is normal at 10 weeks.
