So exciting!! Congrats ladies!!  I'm hoping to post mine tomorrow!

The sac is a little small but the baby is measuring right on track with a strong HB.

So exciting, ladies!! Love seeing these little beans.  

@BumpAdmin, @BumpTara @BumpCaitlin , can we get a sticky on this thread along with our other requests?

Sugargirl1019

Yay I love this! Thanks for starting it! I was stalking all the other BMBs ultrasounds for my fix!

Can we get this stickied please?

Just had my 1st ultrasound done yesterday.  This little bundle is a surprise for our already happy family of five (we already have a girl, boy, girl).  HB 169

For me, it posted as a little mini box with file attachment. Did you insert by clicking the dark box up in the edit font line there?

I'm 6w4d today and measured at 7w2d so I'm thinking my EDD will change. Saw the heartbeat for the first time today too!

cayaylonglegs

6w2d - I should be having another one Monday at 8 weeks. Love that little flicker!

peyjaxmae

Thank you! I think I fixed it

I had an internal U/S today.  Based off LMP I should be 7 weeks today, measuring behind (6+1) Everything looked great except for the measurement.  I go back a week from today to check for growth.  FX baby has grown next week.  

aevan011

Had my first yesterday. Dr says measuring 7 weeks and looks good. Wasn't supposed to get a sono until Monday but she got me in since no one was using the machine...didn't tell me bpm or anything specific but I'm pumped!
It's a miracle I could pause my happy sobbing long enough for her to get some good pics.

You guys are lucky!  I only get one ultrasound at 20 weeks, and another if I pay for it (the 3D).

@1982Babies have you asked for NT scan? As far as i know all OBGYN's offer it and it's done between 11-14 weeks.

I have never asked for an NT scan... they just tell me that is the way they do it.  I go to a PCP though, so maybe that's why. @juliehollz13

@1982Babies oh yeah that definitely makes a difference. The nuchal scan is optional but in my area offered to all pregnant women 11-14 weeks.

I am loving seeing all of these babies! Congratulations ladies!

I graduated from my RE today. Baby is doing well measuring right on track @ 7 + 2 & has a solid HB

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there a way to add the picture from thebump app? That's all I ever use to get on here.

Yes. The little black square in the edit bar there between the infinity figure 8 sign and the alignment lines is available on the app, and it's what you pressee to add a picture from your device.

I was supposed to be 6w6d yesterday when this was done, but was only measuring 6w1d. I go back in 3 weeks for another ultrasound to check for growth and date viability. I'm trying not to freak out, as our daughter always measured right on track. Doc didn't tell me bpm or anything else.

brouwer2016

Measured 6w6d which puts me today at exactly 7 weeks. 

DiFazette

@Mamax2 - I had the same result yesterday.  Measuring 6 days behind.  I go back in a week (next Wednesday) to check for growth/viability again.  Stressful, for sure.  Hopefully I get good news next week and that may help calm your nerves until your next scan.  I'll post back here next week.

@peyjaxmaeA nuchal scan (NT Procedure) is a sonographic prenatal screeningscan (ultrasound) to help identify higher chances for chromosomal conditions including Down syndrome in a fetus. It's the least invasive of tests and a lot of parents choose to do the NT scan before deciding if they will do the CVS or the Amnio tests, which are both invasive. 

cgss11

@mamax2 @difazette The doctor used my lmp to set my date making me 7 weeks at the ultrasound. I measured 6 w 1 day. They had no concerns though, just changed the due date, no other scans scheduled for growth. I'm sure all is fine with you ladies too!

eta: I was tracking my bbt also so I know when I ovulated, and what date we had sex. Conception can take a few days though from when an egg is released, it's never a perfect science!

Thanks for the reassurance @cjss11

DiFazette

Thanks @cjss11.  I was doing some comparisons today and realized while looking at Fertility Friend, (which I haven't in weeks) that I ovulated 4 days later than normal  the cycle I got PG.  That would make the measurement make more sense.  I'm going to keep my U/S appointment for next week and mention it when I'm there.  I'll show them my chart.  They might just change my due date a few days.  I'm hoping that's the easy answer to this.

I'm jealous you all had US at 6 weeks! My doctor won't see me until 8 weeks =( Two more weeks, and the waiting is horrible!

@brittnic86  I feel ya. I'm not seen until 8 weeks either and it is killing me. 

phoenix870509

@brittnic86 based on my LMP the doctor wanted to see me at 8 weeks, but the ultrasound showed I was only 6 weeks along (which makes sense). I honestly don't know if I could have waited 2 more weeks. Now I have to wait 6 weeks until my next one

brittnic86

@phoenix870509 oh really? See off my LMP I'm at six weeks, and honestly I don't even know when I ovulated...but I do track when we have sex. There were only like 5 times between my LMP and my BFP. I had been on BC for 12 years, so I was surprised it happened so quickly. I could be further, or less...who really knows? lol.

@brittnic86 - I think a lot of people who've posted on this thread are 7-8 weeks along.  They're not necessarily getting u/s early, just further along in their pg.
