I had my 2nd appointment this morning. We still can't find the heartbeat, but the doctor did an abdominal ultrasound and the baby was jumping around like crazy! That was the reason we couldn't hear the heartbeat!
I don't think their ultrasound equiptment will allow you to hear the heartbeat. I had a vaginal ultrasound for my first appointment. Either way at both appointments we saw a heartbeat, so I'm happy.
They saw my baby's HB with a regular ultrasound when the baby was measuring 6 weeks 3 days, They didn't see a HB with the vaginal u/s at 5 weeks 6 days.
