Well what do you mean? By ultrasound they can detect a heartbeat on an internal ultrasound usually by 7 or 8 weeks. On a doppler by 12 and I dont think I could ever feel a heartbeat by just putting my hand on my stomach....If you feel one im betting its your own...

Sorry guys I forgot to tell you it is not me this time it is my friend and she is freaking out because she is 16 and her boyfriend is 20 and she is scared if she is prego what her dad is going to do to her I told her I doubt she is because she worries out it ll the time but I wanted to make sure thanks guys

Well I know u can detect a heartbeat on ultrasound at least 7 and a half weeks and as for a doppler, I heard mine when I was 10 and a half weeks preg, but ive never yet felt a heartbeat thr my stomach. Thats probbaly ur pulse, I dont think its possible to feel the babys heartbeat thru the stomach....

Ok thanks I dont know what she is thinking I think she is scaring her self to believe it you know what I mean

I have a "hearbeat" in my stomach right now and I sure as health question am not pregnant

You dont have to curse and be rudeabout it I just wanted to show her and make her feel better gosh!!!

Lol I wasnt being rude! I was just joking around. And I dont think health question is a curse word...

I heard mine on tuesday and I was about 10 weeks! It was very faint, but you could hear it!

I thought you were gone jessika

Ohh

At my first ultrasound at 7 wks they could only find the heartbeat with an intervaginal probe I didnt get to hear it tho. But I think I was 12 wks when I heard it on the doppler now everytime I go it gets louder & louder!

well i did several test n they came back negative n i think im pregnant.. i feel a lil somethin on my rite side. (my mom said she felt the babies heart beat when she was pregnant n she was only a few weeks pregnant..

i'm 36 weeks pregnant and have never felt the heartbeat.. maybe she felt the hiccups cause its consistent? never heard of being able to feel the heartbeat.

theres absolutely no way on gods green earth you can FELL a heart beat of a baby!! i mean come on its in a sack in a sack in skin in your uterus.

thats just silly and if your mom said that she needs to look up stuff before she randomly decides to tell you crap. im 6 weeks right now and the only heart i feel is mine.

when i was 42 weeks with my daughter once again the only heart i could feel was mine.

Some people mistake a Heart Beat for a major blood vessel called the abdominal aorta you have in your stomach. when you press on your stomach you can feel the Blood Vessel. I am a doctor and have had a few people come in about this.
