When can I get my first ultrasound?

I will be 6 weeks tomorrow and have my first doctors appointment today. Is there any chance I will have an ultrasound? This is my first child and a heartbeat would be amazing to hear to make this all feel more real!!

My doctor won't do an ultrasound until I'm 12 weeks and maybe it depends also on insurance?? June 14th can't come soon enough!!! Lol

I think it depends on your doctor. Mine did an ultrasound at 5 weeks because I had some bleeding, but most doctors wait until 7 weeks or later I have heard.

I hope you are able to get an ultrasound and hear a heartbeat!
