Is it common for doctor not to let you hear baby’s heartbeat or measure the heartrate? I am at wk 10plus and so far each gynae appt, he only show me that there is flickering image on scan means the baby’s heartbeat is there.

Mine is private hospital and my gynae let me hear the heartbeat for the first time during week 6. And when 1 week later I felt unwell and decided to visit him, he did a scan and let me hear the heartbeat to assure me everything is ok.
