The book-Your Pregnancy Week by Week

I'm confused, just started reading it and it says that I think Week 10 or 12 is when you hear the hearbeat for the first time??? I thought that started at around 6 weeks??? Chat Icon Chat Icon

My doctor said that you can see the heartbeat at the 6 week sono...but can't hear it until later.

That means you might be able to Hear it on a doppler at the dr's office.

The heart starts beating aroun 5-7 weeks but the heartbeat is wayyy to quiet to hear from the outside.

Re: The book-Your Pregnancy Week by Week

yea my doc said it'll be a while till we hear the heartbeat. I'm 8 weeks and we were able to see it on the sonogram beating away. So cool. I have that book too i think it's with very specific equipment you'd be able to hear it.

I think 10 weeks is just an average. I was actually able to hear the hb at 8 1/2 weeks

i really like that book, although i have to admit i don't completely understand the way they use "weeks" - like, i'm currently 5w4d, which would put me in my 6th week. so in that book i don't know whether to read "5 weeks" or "6 weeks".

i am embarrassed but i have to say, i still find the whole time concept confusing Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

10 weeks is usually the earliest you can hear the heartbeat.

Me too. When someone asks me what month I am in I am like, "I barely figured out the weeks, now you want me to figure out the month?"Chat Icon
