not seeing the chamber of the heart at 20 weeks

HI, Im 5 months pregnant and went for my detailed scan at exactly 20 weeks.,, everything seemed fine, exept that the doctor couldnt see the chamber of the baby`s heart clearly...does this usually happen, or could there be something seriousely wrong?he said he`ll check it out the next time I go when Im 24 weeks...

in some babies it is hard to find their heart beat.. as Kay2486 if your doc was really worried he would of kept trying. i am sure there is nothing wrong.
