My wife is 10 weeks pregnant, and her fetal heart beat is 116-122. Is that too low?

First Ultra sound was at 8 weeks and the HB was 122. Last night she did a doppler on herself and it was 116.

no they consider 110 and lower to be low. The heartbeat is perfect.
That’s perfectly normal. Sometimes you can even tell if it’s a boy or girl by how fast or slow the heart beat is. But it’s not a reliable method.
And please don’t fell like you can’t ask her OB these questions. If you’ve got a good doctor he or she will be more than happy to answer. Even if you think it’s stupid.
My doctor got to where he would have us come in last because of all the questions my husband asked. A routine check up took about an hour and a half because of all the questions he asked.
It is normal…i will say she should call her doctor’s office and ask a nurse if she’s worried…
Congrats!!!
