@BumpAdmin May we get a pin please?

Happy to introduce you all to my little nugget and kick off this thread! We had our first ultrasound at our RE's office on Friday (only perk of infertility = early ultrasound). Single baby, strong heartbeat of 96 bpm and everything looks normal. So far so good! DD 6/10/22. Next ultrasound is scheduled for 10/25.

Tomorrow is my first appointment and I get to see baby for the first time. I'm nervous and excited. Feels like I've been waiting for an eternity for this one small glimpse. Then I'll tell my family next weekend when the drive up to visit. Fingers crossed tomorrow goes well.

@starkette Good luck!

Here is our baby. We are measuring exactly to what my due date is estimated at. Seeing that heartbeat relieves so much anxiety. Heartbeat was 179. Next ultrasound is 11/22.

Here is our sweet little bean. Measuring a couple days ahead. Heart rate was a beautiful 170 

daisy0322

I just had an ultra sound (I didn’t get a picture though unfortunately) I’m 6 weeks 1 day and that little peanuts heart rate was 197!!!! So apparently they’re exercising in their... ive not spoke to the doctor but I can’t find any negative correlation with High heart rate at this stage so for now I’m just excited!

First ultrasound today and baby is perfect 🥰

That tiny white speck is the baby. We were barely able to make out a flicker that means the heart is beating! ❤️😭❤️ I thought I was 6w3d but measuring at 5w5d (wow I woulda tested positive at 3w1 then), they'll confirm at my 8 week appointment though since it's kinda too small to tell for sure 😊

This was last week. I’m 9 weeks today!

 This was on Tuesday, I'm 8wks 2 days today and baby is measuring 4 days ahead!

First appointment today 10/29.. @9 weeks 2 days. Baby is measuring a few days ahead but they are still keeping June 1st as due date

Baby is measuring a week behind, but also have a set of measurements where baby is measuring on time. So doctor is having me come in next week to see why my measurements are so drastically different as it’s not possibly based off when I ovulated & when I got my positive that I’m only 6 weeks. 

pinkkillersheep

Measuring at 6w5d. Everything looks good so far 🙂

KFrob

Measuring exactly 8w3d!  Everything looks perfect.  Have a small SCH so was warned I might bleed a little bit as it absorbs.   

marionberry19

Reconfirmed my due date due to the discrepancies last week. Baby is measuring at 8 weeks so my due date is remaining 6/19. She found a cyst on my ovary but said no cause for concern. 

furmama2babymama

Had our ten week appointment today and wasn’t expecting to see baby again until next time! Baby was squirming around like crazy so not the best picture 🥰

huckleberrypie

8 week 1d, right on track! At my 6w ultrasound the baby was like 4-5 days behind but has caught up now 😊😊😊

Last week we had our first ultrasound and saw two heartbeats. Now, I’m 7 weeks and 2 days. I’ve been so exhausted lately, but we’re super excited! <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/iy/d6upgmy0tee3.jpeg" alt="" />

Had my ultrasound this morning. Little bean is growing and has a strong heartbeat  measuring 8w3d so 1-2 days ahead.

We had our first ultrasound today at 9w4d. Baby measured 10w2d (I had a short cycle, so not surprised to be several days ahead) and HB was 173. Squirmy little thing had arms and legs moving all over

huckleberrypie

Private ultrasound💖 got to see her move and hear the heartbeat - 171. 9w4d measuring 9w2

ournextadventure

measured right at 13 weeks 5 days. Super active and we found out its a little boy. He flashed us the whole time. So excited to now have a girl and boy.

idreamofginny

12w3d NT scan. Baby girl is looking great!

pregnancyafterloss

13wks + 3d 💙💗 baby is measuring 14wks

marionberry19

Would absolutely not stop moving so they could get the heart beat and a good picture. Ultrasound was just to measure the heartbeat. Was asked if my first baby was this active because she was moving a mile a minute & was told I probably have another overactive one on my hands haha  

furmama2babymama

Baby girl looking like a lil alien at our 13 week US 🥰 I can’t believe how active she is  it’s going to be interesting once I can start feeling her movements!

huckleberrypie

She looks like a real baby now, it's real y'all. 🥺❤️❤️❤️ They found some small blood pockets/SCH though and the tech said not to worry, they usually resolve on their own, but ofc I'm worried. 😳 Have y'all had that?

KFrob

@huckleberrypie Yes!  They told me I had one at my first u/s.  The doctor said it was nothing and not to worry about it.  She said I might have some spotting while it resolved but I never had anything and they didn't mention it at my u/s yesterday.  

KFrob

Got all good news at NT scan! Measuring a couple days ahead.  Baby was moving like crazy and we couldn’t get a good picture. This definitely makes it more real!

Will post a photo of baby later, but I had my dating ultrasound this morning. It was a huge relief! Baby is doing fantastically. Healthy, strong, and bouncy! I legitimately watched the baby bounce their whole body up and down. I can already tell this 2nd child is going to test me!

They also updated my due date and I'm no longer a July 2022 bumper. I have been moved to the June 2022 bump group. Instead of 10+5, I'm 11+3. My due date moved from July 1st to June 26th. Crazy. 

binxybaby

@binxybaby Whoops. Didn't know The Bump automatically changed your bump group. Hi All!

Tulips29

I was anxious and looking forward to today’s US and this baby was being super stubborn. Wouldn’t move in the right position and I had to get poked and probed with the ultrasound, get my belly all shaken and then be switched to a vaginal one because the baby was in a position where the tech couldn’t get the neck measurements. Then she gave up after a while and I was sent on a walk and to drink juice + sugary snack to get this baby to move. It made me even more anxious but in the end baby moved and all looked good! Measuring right on track too. 

binxybaby

Here's my little nugget today at 11+3! He was hard to get a photo of because he was so dang active! He was bouncing and kicking and being wild! Crazy kid!

daisy0322

Went for and ultrasound the tech said congratulations it’s a boy then the doctor decided it may be the cord instead and not to go out and buy anything blue. We keep going back and forth. I’m disappointed I really was looking forward to finding out. What do y’all think? 

binxybaby

@daisy0322 I think the doctor is being cautious. That looks suspiciously like a penis to me.

ournextadventure

@DAISY0322 I think it is a boy. Doesn't look like a cord to me.

hillies22

@daisy0322 agree, "suspiciously".

Our little girl today at her NT scan (13w2d). Took forever because she kept barrel rolling in random directions, but it was fun to watch and she's healthy so we were grateful for that.
