i was just wondering i was measuring big at 9 weeks so my doctor listened with the doppler and she found the heartbeat the doctor thought i could be farther along and i went for an ultrasound and baby was the right size for my dates my doctor says she has never got a heart beat at 9 weeks and i was just wondering when everyone heard theres.

I have always been 12 weeks along. But that is just becasue they always do an ultra sound at 8 weeks, and followup four weeks later. Good Luck!

Just to clarify...I heard all my kids heart beats by ultra sound at 7-8 weeks. But, doppler is not very sensitive. It is usually very difficult to pick up a heartbeat by doppler earlier than 12 weeks. It is not really loud nor very strong at that point. It is not impossible, just not likely. So maybe you are farthur along or just have a really strong heart beat!
