Baby's Heartbeat

Sarah_Fay

Since I had a miscarriage last month, my OB is closely monitoring me with this pregnancy. ?When did you all first see/hear your baby's heartbeat? ?I go in Wednesday for an u/s. They are hoping to see a hb.

Thanks!?

We first heard it at 8 wks via ultrasound, but we didn't try to hear it any sooner than that, good luck!

I had my 1st u/s at 5w4d because of spotting.  No h/b just the yolk sac.  Then the 2nd u/s was 6w4d.  We saw the hb then.  It was 124 bpm.  I hope you get to see it.  It's really cool and makes the pregnancy seem real.  GL!!

I had a miscarriage at about 9 weeks last December, with this pregnancy we had an ultrasound at 5 weeks and saw the sac but not the baby yet.  We saw/heard the heartbeat and baby at a followup around 8 weeks.  5 weeks is pretty early on!

We saw it at a little under 7 weeks. The doc wasn't sure we'd be able to, but we did!

8w via ultra sound. The fetal heart monitors never work on me so I just get an U/S a visit. Makes it easier. And, to be honest I like those a whole lot better.

We saw the heartbeat for the first time at 6w5d. It was too fluttery to get a good count at that time. We heard the heartbeat at 9w5d.

I didn't see it at my 5w2d ultrasound, but I saw it at my 6w2d and 7w6d u/s!!!  Good luck!!!

Saw it on u/s at 5w5d. It was slow, but they figured it had just started. It was regulated by the u/s 5 days later.
