First appointment

Karen
I just found out that my doctor doesn't do an ultrasound until the 18th week. I hear this is pretty common even though I wish it was earlier!! This is sort of a silly question but it's my first baby, does anyone know do they still listen to the heartbeat at the first appointment? I desperately want something to make it more real than a line on a stick!!!!!
