How early for heartbeat

Hi all

Well Im 5 weeks and 6 days today and have my u/s and only saw a sack. Doc said to early to see heart beat. When did you see your baby's heartbeat??

With my first, I had an u/s at 9 weeks and saw the heartbeat.

Missy, as you know, we saw the heartbeat at our first u/s the other week and I was 6weeks and 2 days.

Hi Missy,

We went in this morning and saw a heartbeat for the first time! I'm 7 weeks, 6 days. We also had a scan a couple of weeks ago and just saw the sac. Hard to tell how much earlier we could have had the scan we had this morning before seeing something.

Missy- With my DD I had an ultrasound a few days past 6 weeks and we could see her heartbeat. *IF* im remembering right, they said it can show up betweem 6-8 weeks (dont hold me on that though)

Oh thanks so much ladies. I just wanted to see it so much. Tanyah I know what you mean hun. All good seeing the sack and all but just want to see the heart beat too.

Missy, I had my first scan at 5 weeks as well and only saw the sac. My next scan was at 8 weeks and I saw and heard the heartbeat for the first time then at 8 weeks.

Woo hoooo Lyn that makes me feel alot better. Good luck hun

Its hard not to go stir crazy for at least the 1st 12 weeks hey?

Too true Lindsay...and at the 12 week scan you see so much more. At 8 weeks it's just a blob, but at 12 weeks it looks like a baby and moves like a baby..hehe :)

Hi Missy,

I had my scan at 8 weeks and 1 day, and saw the heartbeat so I'm guessing you'd see it between 6-8 weeks?

Good luck with it all!

At 6 weeks 5 days a heartbeat was visible on my ultrasound.

With Jasmine there was a visable HB at 6w 3d

Thanks girls.

Hun it just really depends..
