I'm 22 weeks pregnant and just got my anomaly scan done today. I'm a bit worried about whether everything looks normal. Is a fetal heart rate of 159 bpm okay or is it on the higher side?

Based on typical fetal development, at 22 weeks, normal parameters include a fetal heart rate between 110-160 bpm, so 159 bpm is within the normal range

I've got this lump on my right breast and was told to take simrose tablets as it's supposed to be normal. But now there's another lump, and it hurts when I sleep because I lie on my breast. Should I be thinking about removing the fibroid? Who should I talk to about this, especially since I'm new in the city?

Given the recurrence of breast lumps and associated pain, especially with pressure, consult ageneral surgeon in your new city for a thorough evaluation, including a clinical breast examination, ultrasound, or mammography, to determine the nature of the lumps and recommend appropriate treatment, which may include fibroadenoma removal or other interventions
