I heard my baby’s at 10 weeks. The Dr. said only about 50% chance of hearing it at 10 weeks… Hope that helps!

Ultrasounds can check earlier.. at least at 8 weeks if you were interested.

With my 1st we heard it at 12 weeks, and 2nd not until 16 weeks. They say if you are overweight it could take longer to hear it. I am not overweight and still didn’t hear it until 16 weeks.

I heard mine at 12 weeks.
at 9 weeks they tryed but couldent find the heart beat so they did a ultrasound instead which was even better.

I am 19 and almost 12 weeks pregnant. I was able to hear the heartbeat at 9 weeks and 5 days… I think the website sounds pretty accurate!
