Of all the amazing experiences you’ll have during pregnancy, the first time you hear your baby’s heartbeat is one of the best. Your baby’s heart starts to beat at just six weeks, but you won’t be able to hear it for another couple of weeks. After eight weeks, you should get a chance to listen to your baby’s heart beating when you have an antenatal appointment at The Birth Company. It’s important for us to check your baby’s heart, but we know it’s also an exciting and reassuring moment for you.
Your baby’s heartbeat is much faster than your own. It will sound like a rushing, fluttering noise that has been compared to the hooves of tiny galloping horses.
