baby's heart rate

Hi,
I am 18+2 weeks and noticed that my first prenatal appt at 13 wks my baby's heart rate was 160 and when i went for my second appt at 17wks, the heart rate showed as 150. Should I be concerned with the difference?
Just a little worried,  first pregnancy. Thanks :)

Nope, babies heart beats change all the time. Its also not uncommon for early fetal heart tones to be higher then at later stages of the pregnancy.
