The fetal heart starts beating 22 days after conception, or about five weeks after the last menstrual period. The heart at this stage is too small to hear, even with amplification, but it can sometimes be seen as a flickering in the chest if an ultrasound is done as early as four weeks after conception. After the 9th or 10th week you might be able to hear the heartbeat. By the 12th week, the heartbeat can usually be heard consistently using a Doppler.

Your care giver will listen to the baby's heart beat every time you go into the office for a visit after you are at least 11 - 12 weeks pregnant and record it in your pre-natal record. The first time a heart beat can be seen is at 5 - 6 weeks of pregnancy on a sonogram.
