8.3 weeks tried finding heartbeat with fetal Doppler and failed... I feel so bummed now
Dont b bummed!! My fist appointment was at exactly 8 weeks and they had to do a vaginal ultrasound to find the heartbeat bcuz they couldnt find it on the fetal doppler bcuz it was too early. And it could also b hard to find if ur uterus is tilted or something. My doc said they usually dont find a heartbeat on the fetal doppler until 10 wks. But im almost 33 wks now with a babygirl so dont b sad.
Thank you ladies I saw YouTube videos and got excited.. but I shall be patient
It's even difficult for a skilled operator to find the heartbeat that early. Don't worry! After 12w it'll get easier as the uterus will be higher, but keep in mind your baby still has lots of space to hide and they do move a lot! ?
