1st Trimester

ultrasound... should I be concerned?

I tried to insert a copy of my ultrasound pic, but I can't seem to get it to work. I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks. Most ultrasounds I've seen look a little like a baby. Big head kinda banana shaped body. Anyways, my ultrasound looks different. Almost like a triangle? Also the sac is measuring a little small (i think two weeks behind the baby). The doctor said she isn't concerned about it right now and hopes it will sync up by the time of my next ultrasound at 18 weeks. I wish I didnt have to wait so long. I am concerned cause nothing about it looks like a baby. I dunno. I need some reassurance or honest truth. So many people I read about have miscarriages and Im scared.

  • my ultrasound today at 7w1d looked nothing like a baby. He said that by 9 weeks it will start to. I honestly couldn't even tell what I was looking at!

  • and stop reading about miscarriages (I have to adhere to that too!). You can honestly find a million reasons on google why your pregnancy will not work!

    Can you go for another ultrasound before 18 weeks to make sure everything is OK?

  • This was actually my third one. The first was at 6 weeks cause I was bleeding, but there was no heartbeat so  I had to go back in a week and there was a heartbeat but he said it was too slow so I had to go back my 8th week and she said the heart beat is better, the sac is a little small. I dunno. It just seems like it should look more baby-ish? I go back in the 26th for my next appointment so I might ask. But my insurance isnt great and each ultrasound is costing me $100 :(
  • Thanks Sookie! I didnt even realize that!!!! I will def. have to crop that out!!!!!!

  • With my last pregnancy I was freaked out all the time. I compared u/s pics everywhere, so I know how that feels.

    I calmed down later on when I found out that the quality & model (if it's recent or old) can make a great difference in the u/s pics.

  • Every u/s pic looks different, very different. I wouldn't worry about it.
