I had my first scan with Andrew at 6w2d (my dates) and there was no heartbeat (and I freaked), but I was only 5w4d by the scan. I went back a week and a half later and there was one very strong heartbeat and now I have one active 4 year old.

My doc told me to wait till 7 weeks for the scan as sometimes it either isn't there yet or can't be detected with ultrasound earlier than that and yet everything can still be ok.]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 21:37:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=426061&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#426061 <![CDATA[Heartbeat, when does i start? : I waited till 8 weeks to see ours...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425952&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425952 Author: peanut butter

I waited till 8 weeks to see ours to make sure we had the best shot at seeing it (and taking into account dates might not have been right etc).]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 20:19:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425952&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425952 <![CDATA[Heartbeat, when does i start? : You could see i at my 6 week dating...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425929&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425929 Author: kabe

It does start at week 5, but the heart at that point is barely the size of a poppy seed so it's too small to see on u/s. It can sometimes be seen as early as 6 weeks (we saw this baby at 5w5d on an internal scan) but you can't reliably expect to see it till after 7 weeks.]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 19:40:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425925&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425925 <![CDATA[Heartbeat, when does i start? : Thanks girls I suppose it&#039;s...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425911&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425911 Author: Lanata

Thanks girls

I suppose it's like everything in pregnancy, we are all different. I know a girl who got a heartbeat around mid 5 weeks last year so, anything is normal i guess

My friend is due the exact same day as me and work at the same company lol
I'm in for my first scan on monday, can wait to see the heartbeat and see everything is fine]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 19:17:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425911&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425911 <![CDATA[Heartbeat, when does i start? : I thought it was about 6 weeks?...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425906&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425906 Author: Snickerdoodle

well i dont know what is normal but i had a dating scan at 5weeks 5days and they could see a heartbeat but the lady did tell me that she thought if i was there the day before it probally wouldnt have been seen and that they often dont see them for about another week.

hello, just wondering, my friend went to have her dating scan at 6w 1d and the guy said, no heartbeat, that'll start during week 7

All the books and pages i've read say i starts during week 5.. so... what is it??????? ]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 19:03:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18650&PID=425901&title=heartbeat-when-does-i-start#425901
