Fetal heartbeat too high at 6w?

It’s 188bpm which got me panicking, as from what I understand normal is 160-180.

Anyone had success with a fetal heart rate so high?

High heart rates in an early stage embryo have much better outcomes than low, so that reading is a good thing😊 Plus you're dealing with mere millimetres at this stage so move the probe the tiniest bit and you'd get a different measurement again. The rate is fluctuating all the time. Sounds really positive though, congratulations!
