Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If we go by the guidelines, fetal heart beat can be identified around 6 weeks. But sometimes if the baby's growth is slow, then we can identify the heart beat by 8 weeks. So, there are chances that heart beat can be identified by 8 weeks. Hope for the best!
