Yeah, that's ridiculous. My LO didn't pop out of my pelvis until 20 weeks.

Your doc has no business telling you crap like that. I suggest you get another gyn and tell this one to shove it.

No offense, but your doctor sounds like a moron and I would find another!! At 14 weeks, you can CERTAINLY hear the heartbeat with a doppler. I first heard mine at about 10 1/2 weeks with this one...and it can be seen on ultrasound earlier...around 7 weeks or so I think. I even ordered my own fetal doppler and could hear it at home at 11 weeks. This dr. sounds looney!

TAHNK YOU LADIES!!! THANK YOU!! DH and i were so worried!! Doc kept asking me if i was sure am pregnant! Saying that my baby was taking too long to move "up". She pressed my tummy for close to 5 mins and when i asked her to check the heartbeat,she said that as long as baby had not moved up it was IMPOSSIBLE to hear the heart beat!! I think i need a new Gynae!

Odd.....at 14 weeks the baby is like 3.5 inches.. you can't feel that! Does your doc have an in house fetal monitor to listen to the heart beat?

your doc sounds like an insensitive jerk for not explaining that the baby usually isn't felt until week 18 or so anyway.... don't worry. did your doc check for his/her heartbeat? baby will move when ready.
