Probably nothing to worry about but I'm curious. First time we ever heard baby's heart rate at 6 weeks it was 174. Then at 10 weeks it was in the 150s. We just had an appointment at 16 weeks and it's down to 134! I'm hoping this is because he's getting bigger and can control his heart rate but I'm a FTM and worried.

Thanks guys! @babymomma1215 @rgaine @maybabyboy that's what the Internet said but I wanted to see if real mommies went through it. I feel better now.

I asked my OB about this, and she said it's perfectly normal, their heart rate naturally slows as they get bigger and better control their functions. she said it will actually continue to slow after birth as well until it becomes like ours :-)

It's fine :) as long as it stays above 100 you should be ok. my son settled at about 134-136 at one point
