Is it normal for a baby's Heartrate to change?

Question

My first ultrasound with a different tech the Heartrate was 172. When checking at home today with a doppler the Heartrate was 160. At my appointment today it was 144. Should I worry? The midwife did not seem to worry.

Answer

Our heart rates change all the time... same thing with babies. It’s normal.

Answer

I would not worry. It’s normal. Lower heart rates mean baby is less active or sleeping and higher heart rates mean baby is awake and active. Same goes for all of us! 😊

Answer

Yes very normal

Answer

The highest my baby's heart beat has been was 146 at 10 weeks. After that it has mostly been in the 120s and I'm 33 weeks. It just depends on how active baby is at the time they check it.
