HEY BUB....I DON”T LIKE BEING CALLED A LIAR...IT HAPPENED EXACTLY like I siad it did!!! The Doc heard a heartbeat LONG AFTER he HADN”T....that’s why he said she was going to have a MONSTER....NOW I EXPECT AN APOLOGY....if you have it in you.
That’s not what you said in your original post. But it’s not a whole lot different really. Once a heartbeat is audible, it stays audible until it stops. If it’s unusually fast or slow for a significant length of time, before going back to being normal, then that could be evidence of some serious abnormality. But if a doctor said he couldn’t hear it at all, and then later in the pregnancy started hearing it again, then the problem was with the doctor’s hearing or stethoscope or other device that was being used. If a fetus’ heartbeat stops, the fetus is dead, and they don’t come back from the dead. And that’s something any doctor (and any nurse, even) would know. Either the doctor was flat-out insane or your friend missed a lot of what he actually said.
