They should at every appointment, even your 1st.... kinda why i dont like going to the appointments anymore, (im 29weeks), because all they do is check your bp, urine, & babys heartbeat. Gets pretty routine & boring not to mention.

I had my first appointment when I was 7wks and at my 2nd appointment when I was 11wks they finally checked for the heartbeat. But for my confirmation ultrasound they showed me the heartbeat.
