This afternoon we had our 1st u/s. Everything looked great! We saw the little heart flickering. My OB/GYN didn't measure the rate but said it looked fine. I had me at 6w5d and LO measured at 6w6d. Our next u/s is in 2w.
OB/GYN wants to keep me on progesterone until 13w and I'm to start with daily injections of Lovenox.
DH and I are cautiously optimistic. Stick, LO, stick!
Re: CPW: AW: 1st u/s today
Congratulations! That is so exciting and such a relief, I can imagine!
They saw a HB at only 6w5d??? Tht's even more exciting!
Keep your heartrate at 140 bpm and you should be good. I've heard that from my DR and a hundred other sources. What's your family history?
I'll be on progesterone until 13/14 wks too as I had a progesterone deficiency in the past.
Congrats, again, and good luck!

Thanks! I had a small placental tear in the 1st tri last pregnancy and then lost my daughter at 21w due to a placental abruption. Dr just wants to play it safe so no running.
