Next week I'll be 10 weeks and I have an appt at my OB. She told me that we would most likely be able to hear the heartbeat for the first time at that appt. I was just wondering when all of you mama's heard you baby's heartbeat for the very 1st time! Thanks:)
Re: When did you 1st hear baby's heartbeat?
I had an appointment at 11 weeks but the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat with the dopplar. I had an U/S a few days later and saw the baby and the heartbeat. I didn't hear it until 14 weeks. So, just because they can't find the heartbeat with the dopplar doesn't mean to worry! I was in a panic and it was the best thing in the world to see that little tiny thing on the US screen. Good luck!!!
I saw it at 6 weeks @ my REs office (and the u/s machine simulated what it would sound like).
The first time I heard it in the office on the doppler was around 12 weeks -- but I'm chubby and that makes a difference.
