    Hi

    Congratulations !!!

    Actually we cannot count our pregnancy from the day we ovulate ... It all depends upon when the implantation happens. So the actual heart beat is seen @ 7 weeks.
    Now that you see a yolk sac and fetal pole, your pregnancy is going in the right direction :) Just keep calm for few more days and the scan should show heart beat ...

    Congrats again and wish you a happy pregnancy !!!

    Hi Priya,
    Congrats on your pregnancy. :)
    As a rough figure the pregnancy is calculated from the lmp. It seems like for ovulation it took two weeks & assume another 2 weeks for the luteal phase. Implantation would have taken 1 or 2 days. By the end of luteal phase its 28 days(4W). So, for calculation you can assume it as 4W pregnancy.
    By 6 Weeks one can see the fatal pole & yolk sac. By 8W you can hear the active heart beat. Track your position and wait for it. Sometimes baby may take little time to settle with these ideal timing, so, don't worry. Just stay calm & be positive. All will go well!
    Sticky baby dust to you.

    Dear Vasumathy,

    Thank you for taking time and explaining me in detail.When doctor did the scan she was like no heartbeat at 6weeks??? she gave me such a shocking expression which scared me literally.Will be patient and wait until my lil one settles down:) Doc has asked to come for another scan on 29th lets see how it goes..Thank you very much dear.

    6 weeks is too early for hear beat. Doc could see flicker of activity in some pregnant women by then, but not with all. Only by 7W or 8W heart beat will be proper. So, don't bother until you come to that stage. Just chill, keep your mind positive & happy. That will do the good to you & your baby!
    All the best!
