Hi,
I understand your concern.
- Fetal heart sound are detected by 6. 5 weeks of pregnancy.
- In case heart beat is not seen till 7 weeks abortion is advised.
- But in your case, you are 1.5 months pregnant. If it is counted from your last menstrual cycle, ( you must have conceived roughly 1 month earlier- on ovulation day)-you will have to wait & watch for heart beats till embryo becomes 6-7 weeks.
Thanks.
