"Did you know? The beating heart 💓 of a little one gives so much information about its well-being! ❤️👶

So, what should be the ideal heart rate of the baby inside the womb?

The baby's heart ❤️ is the first organ to develop and function, which is as early as 5-6 weeks of pregnancy 🤰, and it should function by seven weeks to call it a healthy 🤰pregnancy.

Baby's heartbeats 💓 are easily seen on ultrasound scans.

The baby's heart rate ranges between 100 to 120 beats/min to begin and gradually rises to 140 to 180 beats/min towards the end of the first trimester. 📈💗

During the second and third trimesters, the baby's heart rate ranges between 130 to 170 beats/min. 📆📈

The baby's heart rate fluctuates throughout pregnancy depending on its activity; the heart rate rises if the movement is more. 📉🔄

A slow heart rate is called bradycardia if it is less than 100 beats/min. ⚠️🩺 A fast heart rate is called tachycardia if it is over 200 beats/min. ⚠️🩺 Both these conditions need immediate attention from an expert doctor."
