I found out that i was pregnant, I go in the OB to get check up at first check up the size of my baby was 6weeks and 3 days we did ultrasound and the OB cannot find the heartbeat. She told me to drink folic acid and come back after a week. When i came back at her clinic we did an 2nd ultrasound and the baby was just 5weeks of size and still no heartbeat. The OB ask me about spotting or cramping and I don't have experience it until now

In fact, hearing the fetal heartbeat depends on determining the exact duration of pregnancy, as the heart chambers of the fetus begin to form in the fifth week, and the fetal heartbeat can be heard in the sixth week of pregnancy.
How can the fetal heartbeat be heard?
The fetal pulse can be heard through a clinical medical examination of the pregnant woman’s abdomen by an obstetrician and gynecologist. If there is difficulty in hearing the fetus’ heartbeat, an ultrasound device can be used to detect this.
Reasons for delayed fetal heartbeat:
There are some cases in which hearing the fetal heartbeat may be delayed, including:
- The date of pregnancy is inaccurate
- Maternal weight gain
- Small size of the fetus
- A slight change in the location of the uterus
- other reasons
advice:
It is recommended to follow up with an obstetrician and gynecologist.
