How fast should a child's heart beat?

Answer 1

The normal pulse rate range for a 1 mo-12 mo old child is 120-160 beats per minute (avg 140). For 12 mo-2 years it is 80-140 bpm (avg 120).

Keep in mind that our heart rates are slower during sleep and when it is cold. In contrast, if a child has a temperature, it can result in a faster heart rate. In those cases, it could be 7-10 beats off normal.
