IT IS FINALLY MY TURN!!!! Measuring right on track at 9w4d and everything was great! Heartbeat was fast at about 175, I think. It was so amazing to see the little gummy bear dance around! She had to poke it a few times, but it wiggled for me a bit.

@laurenlalap I havent seen you around lately, I am happy to hear that you are doing well ! This picture is so cute I also had my NT scan yesterday, measured right on track at 11w3d. The doctor did not measure the HB but we saw the strong flicker. As per suggestions, I ate some chocolate before the scan and our LO was soo active, jumping, kicking, flipping around It was so fun to watch. But because of the activity, doctor had some hard time to catch the perfect angle. And we couldnt get any nice image At the end, the measurements were good and I am relieved.
Had my NT scan yesterday. Baby cooperated, as per my bribing and all looks great! 157HR and measuring a day ahead. Awaiting the results of the genetic testing. It was so nice to see baby again. Baby hopped around a bit and we got to see both feet and hands.
NT scan today, measuring 13 and 13+1. I can't get over how much they look like tiny humans and how much they move! They were flipping and rolling, kicking their legs and waving at us, it was so awesome. Heart rates were 161 and 167, NT was >2 for both babies. This isn't the best pic, but it's the only one they're both in!

I'm so jealous of all these u/s pictures! I just had my first appt with the nurse today (9+4) and found out they only do 1 at 18-22 weeks. I have to wait til July to even see my LO!
@Roxell I'm also stuck waiting until the 20wk ultrasound. I haven't even heard a HB yet so part of me is worried that I'm somehow mistaken and I'm not even really pregnant. I can't wait until my next appointment in 2 weeks when I'll be far enough along to hear it.
@een23 omg me too! I was just telling DH that part of me thinks my midwife is going to laugh at me at my first appt like "why are you even here, you're not even pregnant"
Had another ultrasound yesterday my tear is completely gone. I'm measuring at 9w3d which changes my due date again this time to Nov 30th. It changes anywhere from the 25th to 30th each time but strong heart beat of 174.
11weeks 5 days! Due date was set to 11/17! It felt so much more real today I think because my bump is popping out (baby #2), hearing the heartbeat (175), and seeing baby wiggling and flipping around!
I can't upload the photo from my phone, but our first U/S was at 6 weeks, where blarp measured a week smaller (my son was the same way), which pushed the due date to November 5th from October 30th. We saw the heart beating in the ultrasound which was really cool. At the next appointment a month later we got to hear the heartbeat which was 160! I go in for my third and last appointment before the big ultrasound/gender reveal, later this month and then during the week of june 20th to 25th we do the big ultrasound! We will be having a gender reveal party that weekend to tell friends/family/and ourselves what we are expecting!
We got our first sonogram yesterday! I was 12 weeks and 3 days and the baby measured 12 and half weeks so that's pretty close!! Love our little cutie pie so much!!
It's a human!!! (We think!) 2nd ultrasound was today. Last time I measured 11 days behind from where I thought I was, and now I'm measuring 5 days ahead at 10w5d. Sorry if the photo is huge, I'm mobile bumping. I love its little hands and feet already!
I'm very proud and happy to "introduce" you all to my son. we got our testing results back today and this was my last ultrasound at the fertility clinic. I bitched all the time about having to go there early in the mornings for u/s and b/w but today I couldn't help but cry leaving. Such an emotional day. As anyone who's had multiple losses knows, your mind can go to dark places sometimes during the difficult journey.... I can't believe I'm finally here!

Finally had the 1st ultrasound today, and was able to listen to the heartbeat. Measuring right at 13 weeks, everything looked good so far. Baby looked mighty comfortable with hands behind the head
12w6d, baby was very active and adorable. Also my blood pressure and everything was normal so I'm just going to try lots of protein snacks and water through the day and come back to see the OB again in a week. Hopefully that fixes the crazy dizziness I've had but if not they'll have me see a neurologist.
I forgot to post last week's NT scan! 11d5d here, I'm 12w4d now.
LO was stretching their arms out and curving their wrist in. They were snuggled in, made me so happy. Everything measured beautifully, posterior placenta noted (squee, all the baby feels) so honest to God this happened, but we showed our toddler the printout photo and he looked up from his Netflix and said, "GURL" and then went right back to his movie.
Husband and I had our hair raising on the back of our necks. It was bizarre, he's not even two, I still don't understand how or why he said that in context as we haven't been prompting him at all. Just one of those things I guess? I can't wait to find out this week the sex.
Had our NT scan on Monday at 12w 6d, baby was measuring at 13w 4d, which is great cause they pushed my due date back based on my LMP. Everything looked great, but the baby wasn't cooperating at all...the tech would try to wiggle my belly to get it to move and it would just roll over on its side and go back to sleep lol finally got the neck measurement after like 50 minutes...I hope this is our laid back baby we're hoping for my son was bouncing up and down like a maniac at his NT scan
Thanks @comealongponds! The midwife is hoping it's mostly been happen ng because I'm using sugary things (peaches, OJ, etc) for most of my snacks instead of eating protein more often. Anyway looks like I'm going to be eating lots of jerky and peanuts this week.

Speaking of jerky and protein. Check out "Real Sticks". They're my go-to and amazing!

FINALLY, I've got some photos to share! Our NT scan went really well and it was followed by my 12w check-up at the OB's office. Baby BOY is looking great and has a HB of 158/pm!!
He was moving around so much that the tech had a hard time getting a still shot. The first photo is of him on his back, from the side-- but the second photo is my favorite! It's just of his legs and looks like a frog going diving, HAHAHAHA!
I also got some 3-D photos but those are a little terrifying to look at this early, and the umbilical cord looks SUPER trippy in them!
Baby boy was flipping around and moving up a storm today! He also seems to enjoy a good fist pump. I'm sure that's going to feel fun down the road. Measuring big at 12w4d. I'm 12w today.
NT scan today at 12w3d! Measuring slightly ahead at 12w6d. Baby did not cooperate, so we got to watch him for a long time and see him wiggle and wave in there. Tech was pretty convinced she saw a penis waving in there too, so I'm going with boy; That's what I was feeling anyway, so I'll take even a little bit of confirmation. Will wait til the 20wk scan before buying any clothes though!
we met the high risk dr today. It went really well... We had a really good ultrasound. Baby was measuring 14 weeks 2 days and weighing in at a whopping 3 oz. we also found out we're having a boy! He was wiggling all around!
Not sure if this is the right place to post a question, but for the NT scan do you have to have a full bladder? I have my scan on Thursday 5/12 I will be 12w5d. Love looking at all of these precious little babies!
@amanda8358 my doctor did not need full bladder, i didnt have a completely empty bladder but they told me i could empty if i want to before the scan. What i understood from this thread (one or two pages back i think), your clinic gives you instructions if they require full bladder. Good luck with the scan !!!
