First ultrasound

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I'm going for my first ultrasound next week. I'm just curious about how they do it. Is my baby too small for them to go through my stomach. Or will they do an internal one?

Re: First ultrasound

  • I had a vaginal 7 week ultrasound in the ER and an abdominal 8.5 week dating ultrasound at my Dr's office.

  • I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks and they did a vaginal. Most likely you will have a vaginal ultrasound. It isn't bad at all, the downside is the cold gel and that's it.
