First pre natal ultrasound

I am on my 9th week of pregnancy and had my first pre natal ultrasound yesterday and the DR informed me that the fetal heart rate of my baby is 197 bpm. I asked her if this is bad or normal. She answered that this is normal.

Why do I feel like something is wrong and she’s not telling the truth. I am going for another ultrasound tomorrow with a new OBgyne. I do not trust this Doctor, she seemed like she doesn’t care at all and not giving me information that I need.

I wanna ask everyone here, as per your experience, is 197 bpm normal for a fetal heart rate?
