Hi! Here and I'm 38, PG with our 2nd child and Type I Diabetic with a history of m/c and bleeding during first Tri of both PGs. Enough High Risk for ya? lol I can't believe how many appointments they have me scheduled for! Between my OB, my Endocrinologist, the high risk OB, blood work and reg u/s as well as "Level II" u/s I think I'm going to use up all my vacation time. What the heck is a Level II ultrasound anyway??
Welcome! The Level II u/s should be the "big" one at 20 weeks that lets you find out the gender of the baby (if you want to know). They also check for indications of down's or other disorders, I believe.
Welcome and congrats!!! I'm 38 and we're expecting our first. I hope all goes well with your pregnancy and congrats on your daughter!

Welcome and congratulations....I just turned 39 and we are expecting our first....I'm slightly high risk, 2 m/c's and of course...AMA....just wanted to say a healthy, happy and uneventful 9 months to you!!
Hi and welcome! I'm sure the other girls have already said, but a Level II u/s is just the u/s for 2nd tri. It's important because it thoroughly examines your baby's anatomy.
