Is this possible?

I am 15w 4d pregnant and quite petite. I have heard my baby's heartbeat on a dopplar so I know exactly where he or she is.

I just put my hand there and I think I can feel the heartbeat too- a definite pulse that is much faster than mine- is that even possible?!

When I put my hand on my belly I can feel a heartbeat too, but it's definitely my own. I'm not too sure you would be able to feel LO's, especially at 15 weeks.

I don't think you can feel bubs heartbeat from the outside at 15 weeks since 26 weeks is the earliest that bub's heartbeat can be heard without a doppler (i.e. with a stethoscope or if someone were to put their ear to your belly).

think it might be your own, i know twice now when ive been in hospital my HB was 110 very fast & it could be easily felt from the outside

There was another thread awhile ago about that, They said there is a vein that pushes to the surface while pregnant that makes you feel a 'heartbeat'. It's not baby this early.

I thought the same. Last week I was in the bath and could see my belly rhythmically twitching really fast. I thought it was bubs. But I'm pretty sure it was just my own heart.

I think its because we have more blood pumping round our body so can feel our heartbeat more easily.

I can feel mine in my fingers tips!
