If you are past seven weeks pregnant, seeing no heartbeat may be a sign of miscarriage. But there are many exceptions to the heartbeat by seven weeks rule. Youve likely heard of people who were certain they had miscarried or were not pregnant, and then went on to have a normal pregnancy.

Is a heartbeat at 7 weeks good?

A normal heartbeat at 6-7 weeks would be 90-110 beats per minute. The presence of an embryonic heartbeat is an assuring sign of the health of the pregnancy. Once a heartbeat is detected, the chance of the pregnancy continuing ranges from 70-90% dependent on what type of ultrasound is used.
