Dreading sonogram tomorrow.....

We've had three losses and two were discovered after the ultrasound revealed there was no longer a heartbeat. We've been very optimistic and positive with this pregnancy but, I can't shake the familiar feeling of what we've experienced in the past. I'm still early, between 6-7 weeks and my doctor has me on 200mg of prometrium 3x a day (fun stuff). Just hoping for good news tomorrow!! Any encouraging stories??

T&P please and best of luck to everyone else! XOXO

I had a loss too and was terrifed to get as far as to have an u/s, because I just knew something would be wrong.  But at eactly 6 weeks, lo and behold, there was a bean in there with a HB of 110.  We got to see and hear it via tv u/s.  Good luck tomorrow- but odds are, everything is just fine!  Remember though that it still may be too early to see the HB, so *try* not to freak out if you don't.  Easier said than done, I know!

It is definitely difficult getting through those milestones in a pregnancy after losses. This is my third pg (first two resulted in early m/c) and so I had never had a good u/s experience. It was definitely nerve-racking but I kept telling myself that I was taking it one day at a time, and what will be, will be. So far so good.

I was also taking prometrium this time around.

Just wanted to let you know I have a similar situation. I have had 3 missed miscarriages. I was able to see a heartbeat once, and two weeks later that one was gone. I had another pregnancy resulting in a blighted ovum. I am currently 11 weeks on my 5th pregnancy. I can sympathize with the feelings of dread around the ultrasound. I know I'm not out of the woods yet but am hopeful that this is "the one" since I've never made it this far before. I have my NT test tomorrow morning. I hope that this is pregnancy brings you a happy and healthy little one!! Its so hard after multiple losses but you have to keep telling yourself that it CAN happen!

I had a blighted ovum last time. We had two ultrasounds and they were both pretty sad. I was just sure it was going to be the same thing again. It was clear as soon as they put the probe on it was obvious there was more there (we were 8 wks). Then my husband started seeing the heart beat and was like "oh yeah, that's awesome" I couldn't see it yet and was panicky and was asking "is there are heartbeat" and the ultrasound tech zoomed in super close so I could see it. It was very cool.

I hope you come back tomorrow grinning from ear to ear with your own happy ultrasound story! I can't wait for your post...
