Doctors Appt. today

Today I go for my Pap test. I'm 10 weeks pregnant and a little paranoid. My mom has told me that the pap will not harm the baby, I'm still a little worried about it. I know it needs to be done. They also said they are going to try and hear the heartbeat. Should I be able to hear baby's heart beat at 10 weeks? Thanks in advance!

The pap will not harm the baby. Your cervix is closed, they are just going to touch it with a q-tip. Don't worry, everybody does one! 

 

As for the heartbeat, it is possible but not a guarantee. So don't panic if they don't find it today. It is much easier to find after 12 weeks or so.

 

Good luck!

Thank you for your reply! The doctor did the pap very quickly which was good. And he was able to find a heartbeat!! It was such an amazing thing to hear!
