How long does a fetus have a heartbeat

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long does it take for a fetus to have a heartbeat?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally speaking, when using instruments for detection, a fetal heartbeat can be observed after 2 months. Above 12 weeks, a fetal heartbeat can be heard using a stethoscope. Pay attention to prenatal care and regular follow-up. Hello, you can supplement calcium during the second trimester. Typically, taking calcium supplements for 1-2 months is sufficient. If calcium is excessively supplemented, it may affect fetal growth. It can easily lead to severe calcium deposition in fetal bones, which may impact a normal delivery. Regular prenatal check-ups during pregnancy can monitor the fetal growth and development.
