YAY! I am so happy for you! I love that sweet sweet sound. It's so fast it reminds me of a panting dog. LOL So glad you were able to hear it "early." I had so many skeptics when I said I could hear it so I had to record it. Like I don't know the difference between my slow HB and the babies fast HB.

Eight weeks for me. If you are fluffy it can take longer. I prop my butt up with a couple of pillows so that the baby moves up. It's hard to hear sometimes bc my heart beat is louder.

Well, first. - the directions might be online. Sometimes you can hear at 10 wks - sometimes not until 12. There are days when you can find it because the baby is pointed the wrong way or something.
