10+4 and still can't find HB

[IsabellaJayne]

I had a scan at 9+1 and heard the HB. So loud and strong. I have a Doppler and still can't find the HB. I found it with DD at 11 weeks so thought I'd hear it earlier with second pregnancy. I heard some people say maybe be because I carry more weight around my stOmach from first pregnancy but only UK size 10/12.

I'm not overly worried. I know baby is still so tiny but just want to hear it. Becoming impatient and I can imagine myself panicking soon

Anyone else waiting to hear it? Second third time mums?

I found it at 10 weeks but I can't find it every time. At 11 weeks it's almost gotten harder to find, I think because the placenta has gotten bigger and now the baby kinda hides behind it.

I don't think it's surprising that so early on that you can't find it, I wouldn't worry I just think it's abit early.

Thanks ladies. Yeah I'm not overly worried. Just damn impatient lol

 

[hopeful:)]

I have found it the last 2 days at 10+1 and 10+2 BUT only first thing in the morning before eating. As soon as I eat I can't find it at all.I also didn't find it this morning. I think it's a bit hit and miss this early x
