I just snuck out the back and had a sneaky listen myself. took a while to find but i deff heard Spock for a good 5 sec! very faint tho. im 9weeks 3 days. =)
it depends alot on your uterus, where bub is, the skill of the person doing it, and also on the maternal habitus (more padding you have the harder it will be)
I posted a similar thread a couple of days ago when my midwife couldn't pick anything up at 9 weeks. Sounds like it's pretty common not to hear anything until later. So I guess we'll both have to try not to stress, and wait a little longer...
i'm sure they didn't try until i was about 15 weeks with DS (lots of padding though ). the ob couldn't find it, told me not to panic & then went into a panic herself trying to get an u/s machine to check (this was in a public hospital)...then she couldn't work out how to turn it on. thank goodness there was a midwife there i wasn't even worried till she worried and everything was fine - i rekcon it was more like 17 or 18 weeks before we heard it, but my memory is awful!
is your scan today? good luck & i hope you enjoy seeing your baby
