When should I be able to hear my baby's heartbeat?

Tisha
I had my second appointment to see a OBGYN yesterday at 8 weeks and 5 days. I thought I would be getting an ultrasound but the doctor ended up telling me that it was no use to do an ultrasound today because they wouldn't be able to hear a heartbeat right now. I thought by now they would be able to. What do you guys think?
