I know it is hard, but try not to worry yourself too much. Yes, 87BPM is low but you are still quite early! My baby boy's heartbeat was only 75BPM at 7wks and I was terrified having had two miscarriages before. It then skyrocketed to 170BPM at 9 Wks and stayed above 140 since then. I'm now just over 38 weeks :)
Keep positive!

I had this exactly situation with one of my pregnancy the HB was 90 at the mid 6 weeks stage and the next u/s it was 70 then stopped and I miscarried. The bleeding and low heatbeat is not a positive sign but I would keep hold of some hope until you know for sure. In these early stages pregnancy can go either way. I always hoped until the end with each and everyone. I've had 6 pregnancies and 2 children. Just remember that everyone's body is different and just because one person has a bad experience and outcome it doesn't mean you will. Keep praying and hoping as your situation may be different. Best of luck. Keep us updated:-)

It could be normal because the heart just started pumping. Just try relaxing and try not to worry too much.

Hello everyone,
Congratulations, i woukd say it is just too early to be worrying about your baby's heartbeat, already. Because heart is not even completely formed as of now. He is still just a few weeks old, and his heard has only begun to develop. I know it must be hard on you and I totally get it, but try not to worry yourself too much. Yes, 87BPM is low but you are still quite early! My baby boy's heartbeat was only 75BPM at 7wks and I was terrified having had two miscarriages before. It then skyrocketed to 170BPM at 9 Wks and stayed above 140 since then.
