A member asked:

My mom is 8 weeks pregnant and the doctors couldnt feel the babies heartbeat?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

U mean see the htbea: At 8 weeks u should be able to see a htbeat, u cannot feel a htbeat, if u cannot see a htbeat on ultrasound, and the fetus is really 8 weeks then it is a non viable pregnancy but to be certain u can repeat the us in 1 more week and if no htbeat again taht is certain.
