Help! When Should I Hear a Heartbeat? Posted: 03-27-04 01:52am
My name is jackie, I am 6 weeks and 5 days
pregnant. I went to the doctor yesterday
for the first time. The doctor performed
a vaginal ultrasound on me, they located
the baby, but there was no heartbeat, and
the doctor said my baby had died. My
doctor is trying to get me to do a
d&c. I have to talked to other
people, and they say, you can't hear the
heartbeat this early. I've talked to
other people and they say that doesn't
mean the baby has died. The weird thing
is that I haven't had any problems, I
haven't had any cramping, and i'm not even
bleeding. Has anyone had this problem?

Hello,
I understand what you are going through,
however I think this person who did a
vaginal ultrasound or uncapable to hear an
heartbeat. This doesnt mean that your
baby has die. Your baby is still alive
and you recently just said that you have
no sign of miscarriage. However you wont
be able to hear a heartbeat til 8-10wks.
If you would like to get a new person to
do the whole thing, you can though. Dont
be afraid to get a new doctors and stuff
liek that. I hope I helped
