Hi all. I had a private scan yesterday at 8+6. I am having weekly scans due to recurrent miscarriage. Sonographer said everything was fine, good measurements and she said ‘nice heart rate’ the heart rate was 120bpm. At 6 weeks it was 144bpm. I’ve done the stupid thing of googling which makes me worry that at this point it should be higher? Due to 4 miscarriages I’m anxious and a nervous wreck about everything lol. Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge and if I’m worrying over nothing as they didn’t seem concerned? TIA

I’ve had 1 private scan and 2 nhs scans so far (12+3 currently) and none have ever measured FHR. So I don’t think it’s anything to be worried about.
