“Is a baby’s heartbeat present from Day 1?”
This is one of the most common questions couples ask.
👉 The truth:
There is NO heartbeat on Day 1.
But life begins the moment fertilisation happens.
✔ Heartbeat usually starts around 5–6 weeks
✔ Seen on scan a little later
✔ Every stage of development matters
