ok my last period was feb…23 i had a ultrasound at 5 weeks 3 days cause i had a tubal reversal so they do it to make sure it is not a tubal so i went for my second one 1 week later no heart beat so i am freaking out my uterus is growing my doctor say’s she thinks it was just to early i so hope that is the case i have a fetal doppler i can hear the wind noise and also sound like fetal blood flow does any one know if this means the baby is ok?
ok i go for another ultrasound tomorrow i will be a little over 7 weeks

It’s a little early.
well usually you can’t hear the heartbeat until around 12 weeks! You definitly can’t hear it at 5 I know that for a fact because that’s how far along I am now and your baby isn’t even a fetus yet so it doesn’t have a heart to beat!
you are probably hearing your heart beat through the vessels in the uterus. 5 weeks is way to early to hear a fetal heart beat- you usually can’t hear the fetal heart beat until around 12 weeks. you will have to wait for your next ultrasound to see if the baby is ok– 5 weeks is also early to see a fetal heart beat on ultrasound, it might take up until your 8 weeks to see it- or thats what my doctor said.
It’s still early sweetpea.
hi a heartbeat cannot be detected until about seven weeks so the best advice i can give you is try to relax as easy as that is for me to say then wait and see i had a scan at seven weeks and to my dismass they couldnt find a heartbeat but they said that anything before that couldnt be deteced. good luck and i hope all is fine.
the ultra sound i had at 8 weekd 5 days showed the heart beating. it was an intrauterine us so the peanut was there. we could not "hear" it untill i was 12 weeks.
be patient. you will get to hear it soon!!!
It can be viewed on an ultrasound at about 12 weeks and by the dopplar device at about 15 weeks. Relax!
