Brief Answer:
repeat scan needed
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
There seems a delay of conception and thus a delay in appearance of heart beat.
But still to be on safer side take a lot of rest and avoid intercourse.
Chance of appearance of heart beat is almost 50-50 so wait and watch is the only option.
Wish you best of health.
