Is fetal heartbeat 172 normal?
1, fetal heart rate 172 is a little too fast, which is related to the fast heart rate of adults. The pregnant woman's heart rate is faster, and the fetal heart rate is also faster.
2. Early pregnancy is a critical period for fetal development.

Matters needing attention in fetal heart monitoring
1, because the position of fetal heart is changing, it is not easy for pregnant women to hear fetal heart accurately. If they don't hear or find anything unusual, they will be nervous and worried, which is counterproductive. It is common in outpatient clinics that some pregnant women suddenly panic and go to the hospital frequently because they can't hear the fetal heart or the fetal heart is slightly abnormal because of the incorrect use of the fetal heart stethoscope. Zhang Zhongfang believes that this will only increase the mental burden of pregnant women.
2, "fetal heart and maternal heart, heart to heart", abnormal fetal heart can convey a lot of information to expectant mothers, and the mother's health and mental condition will also affect the baby, which may cause changes in fetal heart. Zhang Zhongfang said that in order to understand the fetal heart more accurately and reduce unnecessary panic in self-monitoring, expectant mothers should pay attention to the following points: keep a good attitude and relaxed mood, and avoid mood swings. Eat a reasonable and light diet, drink less strong tea and coffee, and eat less spicy food such as pepper and curry. Ensure a good sleep. Be careful when taking medicine. You'd better ask a doctor before taking it. Fetal heart auscultation time should not be too long.
The speed of fetal heartbeat is also a sign of normal fetal development. If you find that your heart rate is slightly faster than normal, you can find out the reason at the doctor's suggestion, which is caused by excessive activity or improper diet. Therefore, even if you find that the fetal heart is not in the normal range, don't panic. This may be a normal phenomenon in a certain growth and development stage.
