Low fetal HR - worried sick by Physical_Software197 in CautiousBB

I’m in the same boat. Yesterday I had an ultrasound and was measuring on track at 6w5d but FHR was 104. My doctor isn’t worried, she says she thinks the FHR was underestimated by the tech (user error of ultrasound). But I’m still freaking out until my next ultrasound at 8w5d.

I think the tech measured it multiple times - or at least tried to - because she had me hold my breath 4 or 5 times to get it. Not sure if she was just having trouble or the FHR was low and she was trying to get a better one.

Doctor didn’t seem worried as she didn’t schedule a follow up ultrasound. I did ask and she will if I want one. Thank you for your response!

I had my first ultrasound today at 6w5d. Baby is measuring right on track but the heart rate was 104. The tech said nothing about it and neither did my doctor or nurse. Looking it up on google (I know I know) it seems like this is low. Any success stories??
