At fertility clinic doing an transvaginal ultrasound tmrw at 6 weeks 2 days for dating and heartbeat....is it to early for heartbeat.

Probably: By the fifth week of the gestation period, the heart starts beating and divides into chambers. So you can hear a baby’s heartbeat at six week gestation. Dr looks out for more than just the heartbeat. He searches for the gestational sac and checks the size of the baby. These measurements will determine the age of the fetus
