hi, dear all,

I am a new mummy, just confirmed by gynae today that i am pregnant with 5 weeks. But still can't see baby's heartbeat, is this normal? My doctor at NUH said it is normal, he did not expect to see heartbeat for a 5 weeks old foetus, he asked me go back to see him in another 2 weeks.

Any advice for me? I am 48 kgs, am i too skinny? i try to eat more, drink more milk, hope it helps to make the foetus grows bigger.

Yes its normal not able to detect baby's heartbeat at 5 weeks. As long as you have no heavy spotting, you should be ok.

Congrats. Don't worry about your weight now. You will put on soon :)

Take care and try not to think too much and get yourself worried.

Welcome here. . .

To see and hear heartbeat would be at 8 weeks.congrats to you!

the first 3 months will not have a massive change in weight, so don need to worry, as long as you have enuff nutrients for both you and your BB, all will be fine.
