What is the normal heart rate for a 6 month old baby?

Answer 1

Normal heart rate for a 6 - 9 month old is 90 to 130 when awake and content. When the child is upset and crying it can go as high as 190 and possibly higher, the concern is if it stays above 210 for several minutes that has the possibility of cardiac arrest. A sleeping baby can go into the 80's and sometimes dip into the 70's, this is normal as long as the baby still maintains normal color and temperature. Remember that every child is different what is normal for one might not be normal for another. Watch for signs ie: Steady breathing, pale to light grayish/blueish color in the face, white or light blue around the lips and cold feet. (You can put slight pressure on the skin at the feet or legs to leave a fingerprint in the skin then remove your hand and see how fast the color comes back, anything within 4 - 5 seconds is ok). Oxygen levels should be in the mid to upper 90's but can drop to the low 90's while resting. Also Apnea and other monitors are not exaclty accurate and have a problem being precise but they can be close, use them as a approximation. Always, always consult your pediatrician with concerns and remember your are your babys advocate, he/she can not talk for themself so you need to be exact and stay and not leave the doctors office until you completely understand what was said. A good hint is to write down questions for your child's doctor before going in so you wont forget something and remember it once you get int he car to leave.
