First scan

Hi all,

I’ve recently found out I’m pregnant with my first baby so very excited but also nervous. I’ve booked to have an early scan just to reassure me. I will be between 6-7 weeks. Will I see the baby’s heartbeat at that point?

Hey my lovely yes all being well you should see the heart beat , they might have to do an internal one for the accuracy of your little baby as your dates could be behind or forward.

Being pregnant brings a lot of emotions and anxiety so your not a lone my lovely.

All the best xx 😘

Just be warned be warned hun it's easy to be wrong on dates. I was so adamant on mine and I was two weeks behind what I thought. So if your dates are wrong there might not be much to see at all.

At 6 weeks it’s the size of a grain of rice 7 weeks a blue berry so it’ll be very small but a heart beat should be heard from about 6 weeks. Hope the scan reassures you and good luck for a healthy pregnancy 😊
