#asktheexperts I am 6 weeks 6 days pregnant and in scan it shows 5 weeks 4 days pregnant and with no heart beat. I am worried so much and my question is can heart beat comes after 1 week? plss answer this is my second pregnancy

A. Mam actually I must tell you two things over here first of all the week of pregnancy can be plus or minus one week or two week which is normal second guess the heartbeat can come by the time of 12 weeks a doctor usually waited till 12 weeks because it’s an important time as initial three months of pregnancy are very crucial and if it happens by 12 weeks also then it is a win winsituation
