Can they detect a heartbeat at 5 weeks?

Hearing a baby’s heartbeat for the first time is an exciting milestone for new parents-to-be. A fetal heartbeat may first be detected by a vaginal ultrasound as early as 5 1/2 to 6 weeks after gestation. That’s when a fetal pole, the first visible sign of a developing embryo, can sometimes be seen.

When does fetal pole appear?

The fetal pole is usually identified at ~6.5 weeks with transabdominal ultrasound imaging and at ~6 weeks 2 with transvaginal ultrasound imaging, although it may not be seen until ~9 weeks in some cases. When the fetal pole measures ≥7 mm, a fetal heartbeat should be detected.

At this point we can see the dark area with a small circle inside. The dark area is the gestation sac and the small white circle is called a yolk sac.

When do you see the heartbeat on a 6 week ultrasound?

Can you detect Heatbeat at 5 weeks 5 days pregnant?

Even with the benefit of the doubt, and you did see it that early, it is impossible that you would find that it was 152 bpm. It has been scientifically stated that the fetal heart begins beating during the 5th week of pregnancy and it starts at around 80 bpm and increases daily up until the 9th week at around 140-160.
