Are you checking with a doppler? If so, then no worries...we didn't hear my son on doppler till 14 weeks. Ultrasound picks the heartbeat up earlier.

I had another ultra sound today, still no heartbeat. I had this u/s done at local hospital but no one could tell me anything. Now I have appointment with doctor because the nurse said the doctor will have to tell me whats going on.

I had an ultrasound last week (10 weeks) nd the doc told me it was too soon to hear it, so to wait till my 13 weeks us
(might also depend on how potent the US machine is)

I got also an ultrasound when I was 7 weeks and the doc couldn't hear the heart then(he just wanted to show me that nothing could be heard and that the baby was too small )

I agree with both ladies, you should have another u/s to recheck and the hearbeat with a doppler usually isnt detected until 12 wks + sometimes you can here it earlier, but you def need a follow up u/s

You could also be earlier than you think you are, happens a lot actually, are you scheduled for another U/S to check in a week or so? Good luck I'll be thinking of you!
