Normal is definitely between 110-160 according to all the professional organizations dealing with pregnancy care. The most important indicators of fetal well being are variability and accelerations of the heart rate, not the actual rate itself as long as it's in the realm of normal range. If your doctors were concerned they would have kept you longer or performed a biophysical profile via ultrasound. A cord wrapped around baby wouldn't do what you're describing - many babies are born with a cord wrapped loosely around their body or neck - sometimes twice around! Some babies change baseline rates.

If not, I would recommend that you request one. This way, it will give you and the doctor piece of mind that everything is okay. Don't read too much of those bad endings. You are just going to freak yourself out. Just get an ultrasound. I'm sure everything is fine. Did they send you for an ultrasound to check this out??? If not, I would recommend that you request one.
