The heart forms after about 22 days(not complete but starts to receive blood). Because it is linked to the mothers blood supply its starts to pulse with the mother's heartbeat. Meanwhile heart tissue/muscle is still forming while the babies heart is still pulsing from the mothers heartbeat. At some stage the nerves from the babies heart get connected to his own brain and start to beat on its own as it receives the signal from his brain. First very weak, but as the nerve connection gets better, it starts to beat stronger up to the stage that you as the mother can feel/hear it.
Yes, but it usually means the child has a heart condition.
Well it depends how you see it.....i think it is at conception because it is onli 21 days after conception when the heart starts beating.
The baby's heart starts beating between 5-6 weeks and can be seen on ultrasound.
No, however, when you are a fetus, the heart does pump blood to the lungs as there is no need; there is also a hole in the wall seperating the ventricles, which closes up as the baby develops and starts to pump blood. If this does not close up properly, this can lead to major heart problems.
The first organ to develop in a baby is the heart. It begins to form shortly after conception and starts beating by the end of the fifth week of pregnancy. The heart is crucial for circulating blood and nutrients, supporting the growth and development of other organs in the fetus.

About 3 months, usually respiratory system of the baby develops at 12 weeks of age. ** The fetus's heart starts beating at five weeks gestation. Through an ultrasound you can see the ultrasound at about 6-7 weeks. With a fetal Doppler you can hear the heart beat at about 9 weeks.
No, but at 5-6 weeks you can hear it with an early ultra-sound. :)
A fetus's heart develops early (3-5 weeks after conception). It starts out as a tube and then grows into 4 chambers around 5 weeks. It starts beating around 5 weeks but usually can't be heard until 7-9 weeks. During weeks 20-24 a fetus's heart heart develops more fully. An ultrasound of the heart during this time can rule out some congenital heart defects (CHDs) just by looking at the shapes of the four chambers of the heart. (Some CHDs are not detectable by ultrasound.) Before birth, the fetus's heart pumps blood oxygenated in Mom's lungs received via the placenta. During this time, an extra pathway (PDA) exiting the baby's heart is left open. After birth, this extra pathway closes and the heart pumps blood to the baby's lungs to get oxygen in the bloodstream.

That is what it looks like at 7 weeks, a clutter of cells, but this is when the heart starts beating so trust your doctor.
The heart rate of baby is about 90 beats per minute.
