High fetal heart rate?

Question

Has anyone had a high fetal heart rate reading and had their doctor express any concerns about it being too high? Yesterday, at 8w5d, my baby’s heart rate was 183. I thought that was great until I read about fetal tachycardia and now I’m a little concerned. Just looking for some similar stories with positive outcomes🤞

Answer

183 isn’t bad for that gestational age. I believe it peaks around 9 weeks and is supposed to get as high as around 180. So you’re okay! My babies heart rate was 196 at 9w6d so definitely a bit tachy but I had different issues going on as well ❤️ best of luck!!

Answer

This sounds normal to me. Mine was 174 at 8w

Answer

I went in at 9 weeks, 4 days. The heart rate was 177bpm. My doctor indicated that was a good, healthy heart rate for a baby that size. I’d call your doctor if you’re worried.

Answer

Heart rates are really fast in the beginning when it first gets going really good. Then it slows down as the baby grows and will stay in the mid 100s until after birth. Unless your doctor was concerned I wouldn't worry

Answer

My daughters went between 173 & 185 my whole pregnancy with her, she’s a healthy 4 year old with a normal heart & heart beat! ❤️

Answer

Mine was 182 at 8w2d. My OB said totally normal that early. Don't worry!
