6 Weeks Pregnant and no heart beat?!
Question: 6 Weeks Pregnant and no heart beat!?
I just had a vaginal and pelvis ultrasound saturday!. I got the results yesterday from my doctor!. They weren't as good as I hoped!. They found out I was around 6 weeks pregnant!. I was wondering if it's normal that the baby's heart beat hasn't begun yet!? I have read on a lot of websites that the heart should start beating at 6 weeks!. I found one that said 8 weeks!. I am really confused and really worried!. This Sunday I have an appointment for another ultrasound!. I am just praying that the next scan will be just fine!. Ladies I need truthfull and serious answers!. I need all the help I can get!. Thanks so so much in advanceWww@Answer-Health@Com

In my poinion this is totally normal!.!.!.!.and if something was wrong they would have needed to tell you!.!.!.!.A babies heart can begin to be detected between 6-8 weeks although it is still difficult to detect sometimes even as far as 12 weeks gone!.!.!.!.!.as it is very faint!.!.!.!.!.!.So i would try not to worry as stress will be bad for baby!!.!.!.!.But just remember many people dont even realise their pregnant at 6 weeks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I had a miscarriage and they knew by 6 weeks that something was wrong!. It's still very early for heartbeat detection!. If something was obviously wrong they would have told you!. They are doing another U/S to asses the situation when you are further along!. Hang in there and I know telling you not to worry isn't going to help, but really if they suspect something is wrong they aren't going to hide it from you!. I send you good wishes!. : )Www@Answer-Health@Com
This is totally normal for the baby not to have a heartbeat yet at 6 weeks!. Around 8 weeks you should have a heartbeat!. The baby isn't fully grown yet, that's all!. Good luck and don't worry too much!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sweetie if you baby had died they would tell you!. I had a stillborn infant and they told me after a scan so I could go in and be induced to deliver him!. If they haven't said so then it aint so!. Try not to worry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
My wife is seven and I can't feel a heart beat yet either!. So you might feel it at 8 weeks!. Then again, you might not even feel it at all!. That's what her doctor told us!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I think its pretty hard to tell exactly when the heart begins to beat!. Somewhere between 6 + 8 weeks would be normal!. Development at such an early stage is fairly defined but there will always be different lengths to stages!.!.!.that's nature! Think about how babies grow once they are born!.!.!.no two ever achieve things at exactly the same time!.!.!.Eg: Some teeth earlier than others, some walk or talk late or early!.!.!.
Please try not to do so much worrying though!. Trust that the Dr's know what they are doing and that they have to tell you the truth if they believe something is wrong!. If you are unsure what your results mean then you should ask the Dr for more information!. Be strong enough to keep asking until you are satisfied and have understood!. The more information you have the less scary things are!
Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
