If you've had an ultrasound feel free to put a picture here so we can all say hello!
Please remember to black out all personal information, as this is a public forum and the internet is full of creeps!

@BumpAdminCan we have this pinned please?

First appointment was a little over a week ago. Measuring right on track at 8w4d. Saw the heartbeat (180) and they were even bouncing around a little. Already can't wait for my next appointment at 12w to see how much they've grown! 💕

mflowers929

Here's my little nugget at 8 weeks exactly. The umbilical cord was very well developed as you can see lol. Should know what he or she is by next week!

sunshine2417

Eeeek @mflowers929 did you take the sneak peek? That’s the coolest looking umbilical chord ultrasound I think I’ve seen thus far! YAAAYYY bitty baby!

mflowers929

@sunshine2417 yes! I sent it off yesterday. Checked tracking today and it should be in Quebec by Tuesday then it usually takes 1-3 days to reach their US lab and I should get results the same day!

mali0902

@mflowers929 so exciting! We didn't do the sneak peek test, but we're doing the genetic testing at week 11 so we'll know sooner than any of my other pregnancies! Do you have any guesses? I know it's a wives tale, but heart rate hasn't been wrong for either pregnancy so far. I'm guessing girl for me atm.

I don't know why, but the app won't let me upload images and it says I don't have permission to post links to them 🤔

Okay, it worked this time. These were done at 8 weeks.

@mali0902 We have free genetic testing here, but they don't include the gender in the results. I was too impatient to wait til 20 weeks this time lol even though I'll have to wait until then to confirm. Hubby and I are both thinking it's another boy. I'm craving potatoes like I did with my son and I'm less sick than I was with my daughter (the one I lost that I know was a boy I wasn't sick with either)

@js1213 the app gives me the same message. I go to the desktop site to upload my pics.

Here’s the lil blip last Friday dated at 7w1d. 

sunshine2417

HR is 137 and measuring 6w5d (one day off my 6w6d calculations).

We’re guessing boy as our son’s HR was 143 and daughter’s was 174 around the same time, even though that’s scientifically proven to be a fake “old wive’s tale.” I submitted my SneakPeek test today and hopefully will have results by end of the week!

mali0902

@sunshine2417 I'm a heartbeat believer too! My daughter's was always above 165 and my son's was always closer to 145. This one was 180 so I'm guessing girl for me. I'll be looking for your sneak peek results!

the_mama_bean

little nugget at 8 weeks exactly! I never saw the yolk sack like this with either of my daughters — so cool! HR is 176 but both my girls were in the 140s so I am totally curious! wayy sicker with this one, thought it could be twins! we wait til birth to find out boy or girl tho so I have a long time to wonder haha 

the_mama_bean

not sure why my username is still showing up as knottie? I have changed it in the app & it shows up correctly there?

Have you tried logging out of the app? I had to do that a few times before mine finally changed.

Had our ultrasound today! Tech didn't give us an exact due date, but said "8 weeks give or take" . Since they had to check on a previously identified polyp, she did a vaginal ultrasound and got a really good picture. I think it looks like the little bean has wheels haha.

Looks like they're doing flips in there! I didn't ask what the HR was so I'll have to ask my midwife if she can see it on the results.

the_mama_bean

thanks!! I tried it so let’s see if it worked 🤞🏽

the_mama_bean

haha my thoughts exactly!! very different position than either of my girls!

Our little chicken nugget! Measuring right on track. Heartbeat was 164bpm. They even did a little dance for us.

Gingermom15

Measuring 8 weeks today, 1 day off from my guess based on ovulation! Everything looks good. 

goldenmom00

Just got a US today and found out we are having TWINS!!! We are in shock and still trying to process, as we haven’t told families yet we are pregnant and now will be telling them there are 2! Measuring right where they should be at 7W 3D

mflowers929

@ameyer00 oh wow! Our first twins. Congrats!

clee5711

@ameyer00 oh wow! Congratulations!

sunshine2417

@ameyer00 SO EXCITING!

ashnicell

Measuring right on track! 9w5d. Our little peanut was dancing all over the place too. HR 171. 

ladykenmore_

I’ve been super nervous since I got my ultrasound yesterday because I live in Ontario Canada and they won’t tell you or show you anything during the ultrasound. But I got my results today and I am SHOOK! 

We’re having twins! Twins don’t run in my family so you can imagine the surprise lol.
congrats everyone on your little beans!

ashnicell

@ladykenmore_ They don't let you see anything?! That just doesn't seem fair. The suspense must be so high. 

Congrats on twins! So exciting! 

mflowers929

@ladykenmore_ Congrats!

krknmama

@ladykenmore_ OMG more twins!! Congratulations!!! 

I’m so jealous of you all. Still have to wait 2 more weeks! 😩

dumbledoredies

@ameyer00 @ladykenmore_ congrats to you both on twins!!

ladykenmore_

@ashnicell the suspense was killing me! I just wanted to know that there was a heartbeat. Much different here than in the states!

mflowers929

@ladykenmore_ I know a lot of people are surprised when I tell them that they're not allowed to tell me anything here too! It is a little odd that they didn't let you see the screen though, the only time they've done that for me is when things don't look good. TBH the only reason I have an early ultrasound picture is because I went through the miscarriage clinic first, otherwise the only ultrasound picture I get is at 20 weeks!

fantasyflyte

Had our last appointment with the RE today, we've officially graduated to the regular OB! Second ultrasound, but this one is much more baby-shaped lol. I'm pretty sure they're upside-down here and I think those are little arm nubs! Heart rate was beautiful at 175 and we were able to actually hear it this time! It's amazing how much our Bean has grown, they've more than doubled in crown-rump length in 9 days.

ponyoisfun

@fantasyflyte congratulations on graduating to the regular OB!

Little baby is measuring a bit small. I was 7 weeks 6 days at the ultrasound but baby was measuring 7 weeks 1 day. The doctor said it wasn’t a big enough difference to change my assigned due date though. Heartbeat was 157! 

chuckle_sandwich

Measured right on track, 9w4d! Little tater tot was wiggling all around and waving. Heartbeat was 170 which my midwife says is “girl range.”

hre175

This was from last Monday at 9w3d! Little one was squirming around in there waving arms and legs while we were watching ❤️ Can’t wait to be able to feel those movements in a few weeks!

@mflowers929 Did you get your results back from Sneak Peek?
