[mystic_angel]

Hi ladies

Went for my first scan today and found out Im 5 weeks and 5 days, they picked up a flickering heartbeat and the lady said it was about 85bpm...is this okay ?

I think at that stage the heart is only *just* flickering into life, so I think that should be fine, for your gestation Congratulations!!

Yep. Thats a normal heart rate at that gestation.

Yeah, what PZ said - you may have seen the very first flickers
