Pregnant after a Loss

XP: Going to have a daughter!

She was not modest, but she was uncooperative - she kicked and flailed her arms around, and turned her head from side to side, but she refused to change positions so the tech could get a good reading on the heart. She could see four chambers, but she couldn't see the blood flowing in and out, so I have to go back in four weeks for another ultrasound to see the heart. All other organs looked good. I was kind of disappointed that we still didn't get to see any rolling/flipping (she was pretty still during the first tri screen and our nine-week ultrasound), but I'm thrilled that everything seems to be ok. The baby's heart rate was 136, which is consistent with what I've been getting on the doppler lately. The OWT about boys' heart rates being under 140 and girls' being over 140 was not true in this case!

After the ultrasound we went to BRU and registered for a few things - gender-neutral, except for one little outfit that was blue and had a baseball theme - just in case any of our family members try to get cute and peek at the registry to figure out our news before tomorrow (we're all getting together to share the news). Hah!

  • Congrats on your daughter! Your u/s sounds a lot like mine, except my little girl wouldn't show the goods. When I went back at 24wks, there were able to get what they needed on the heart and confirm it was a girl. Have fun getting another look at your little girl!
