I am 13 weeks pregnant and have had a good u/s last week. Am able to hear the baby on home doppler. Heart rate is usually 150's, but this morning was around 140.

I understand that the heart rate decreases with time (it was 170's and has decreased slowly) but I am afraid as 140's seems a bit low for the age of the pregnancy? heart rate is back up to 150 now..

I am just concerned that if it is 140 at 13 weeks it will be real low at term...

Is this normal??

thanks
