I'm worried.

[Ackray]

I just had an u/s because I've had some worse cramping today and it freaked me out. The u/s showed that I have a ovarian cyst. Whatever...

The baby is measuring 6 weeks 1 day, I'm 5 weeks 6 days, so that's good, but the HR was only 103. That sounds do low to me. And it's totally freaking me out! The u/s tech said that it was OK and that most times they can't even see a heart beating at this point. But I know that we could with my other children and that the heart rates were much higher. I could hear my girls' hearts by home doppler at 6 weeks and 6.5 weeks.

Is 103 too low?

It's still pretty early, my RE doesnt even attempt to measure the HB til 7 weeks; for that reason. It could have just started and is still growing strong.

I think just the fact that it has a heartbeat is a positive thing.

Don't worry! For how far along you are, it's amazing they even saw a hb! Yeah, the baby is measuring big, but come on, did you see how hard it would be to put a cursor on that little thing? THings are off so easily. They say under 90 before 7 weeks (i think) and you're well over that! 103 is a great number. Seeing the hb brings your chance of m/c WAY WAY down.
