Slow fetal heartbeat 6 weeks? Worried

Question

Hi everyone,
After pain and light bleeding I've just come from a transvaginal scan
Baby where it should be bloods ok
But very faint heartbeat
They sounded very negative and said it should be beating strong for its size now and it isn't 
I'm going for further scan in 10 days so they will know then either way
Any of you come across this before? X

Answer

I went in at 6 weeks and my babies heart beat was 101. Slightly on the slow side. I'm now 29 weeks with a healthy baby boy. Try not to worry even though its much easier said than done.

Answer

What was the heart rate? Some docs go negative when everything is just fine, so try not to worry too much.

Answer

I had to have an ultrasound at 5 weeks 3 days (I thought I got my period but it ended up being bleeding and pregnant) - they couldn't find a fetal heart beat yet.. So I've had my HCG levels tested (two days a part) 4227 and 4232 so my doctor thinks I am going to miscarry.. I have another ultrasound booked for next Friday - maybe there will be a heartbeat, maybe not... I'm just taking every day as it comes now..

Answer

Same thing happened to me. I went to my check up and doctor said everything was okay. At this stage the heart JUST developed so he said it take a little for it to get going! Good luck!& praying for you!

Answer

I had a 6 wk ultrasound and heartrate was low, 94 beats per min, my dr called me next day and told me i was high risk for miscarriage, booked a scan a week later, in meantime I spotted wit heavy cramping and thought it was over, next scan heartrate was up over 120 and have had checked since (11w4d now ) and alls well.
They err on the side of caution which is stressful, good luck and happy thoughts

Answer

I had a scan at 7 weeks at the e.r due to complications the baby's heart rate was 122 the e.r doc said it was very low. I went to follow up with my ob and she said it was fine. That during that time the baby's heart rate should be somewhere between 120-170. Se told me to only worry if the heart rate was below 70. Do you know what te heart rate is?

Answer

I did actually with one pregnancy. After I was bleeding.  Dr have  me a choice. He said I would probably miscarry on my own. But said it was never a good sign.  I sure hope it picks up for u.   Never know. Good luck

Answer

Don't stress yourself to much that will only make things worse I hope everything works out good luck

Answer

Try not to stress,  one of my directors at my job was taking to me after congratulating me my pregnancy. The first things she mentioned to me (because I told her I was a worry wort) was you may have cramps and spotting,  your hcg will increase no matter how low the number is at the beginning, and they may have a hard time with the heartbeat at first,  but it gets better.  So just see what the next visit has in store, I'm sure everything will be fine!

Answer

At first she said she couldn't see a heartbeat
​She ten turned the screen to me and we saw it, she only said it was very slow and now what it should be for its size, they said 6.5 week but my dates are 5.5
​She didn't measure how many beats but said I may miscarry
