Default When did you see the heartbeat???

I am wondering, for those who have done this before. When did you see heartbeat. You can chose more then one, for those who have had multiple journeys.

We saw Twin A's heartbeat at our 6w ultrasound (exactly 6w). We saw both twins' heartbeats at our 7w (exactly) ultrasound.

Hope this helps. Congrats on being PREGNANT!

Our first u/s wasn't until 8w5d, so that was when we saw it... it's a bit late, but that's when our RE does them!

Thanks for starting this Jenn. I had my 1st U/S today. I am exactly 6 weeks and 1 day. We saw a sac but nothing in it. I am just so upset. A lot of the girls said it could be to early. But wouldnt u see something in the sac? Any ways thanks for starting this hoepfully this thread will give me some hope for our next weeks U/S.

Its still early! That is what happend with I had Nathan, learned my lesson and I always try to set my first OB appointments around 7-8wks to avoid that. I say, literally, you go back in a week and I am sure you will see the hrtbt!!!

With my 1st child ( Aidan James) we did see 2 heart beats at 6 weeks .
Sadly by 7 weeks 1 day we had lost a twin .


With this journey ...Hmmmmm, we'll have to wait & see what's going on next week.
Right Angela ??????


But 6 weeks is early so relax if you see nothing until 7 weeks or more !!!


Best of luck !!!

With my first we saw twin A's heart beat at 6 weeks exactly and then twin B's heart beat at 7 weeks exactly.

Second journey we saw the heart beat at 6 weeks but I did not remember exactly how far along I was.

If you want him to wait until 8.5 weeks ... tell him! Dont stop the meds until you feel okay with it.

Honestly I would want my beta checked too ... if they are still doubling as they should, I would probably wait a little longer.

Well, surrobaby...we saw it at my first ultrasound appt...6wk1day.

This time, as you know...i was 5wk6days, and saw no baby.
SO..hoping for something next week!

Kayla..I think just the fact that they saw the baby in there would be good news! Until you and your IPs know in your hearts that it is over, I would not stop meds. That is JMO. You want to know that you know that you know that it is not viable before you give up!

Thinking of you today...isnt today your ultrasound!!??
Many prayers!!
