I was over on the May group and noticed that they had a thread going for ultrasound pictures. I know I've seen a few different threads with ultrasound pictures but I thought it might be good to have one condensed thread to update and share! (If we already have one please let me know!)
So post away! Don't forget to edit out any identifying information for the crazies out there.
I just had my second scan today at 8weeks3days and its crazy how the little dot turned into a little blob!
I was wondering why we didn't have one of these yet!!!!
I'll repost my little 7w2d mummy gummy bear. I can't wait for my 12 week scan!!!! I can't stop looking at my ultrasound pictures. Baby's first photo booth
Here is our little nugget. I was supposed to be 8 weeks today but I knew I would measure behind (long cycles and I ovulated late) so baby is measuring around 7 weeks and 2 days.
This was 6 weeks 6 days! The heart rate was 126 and everything was looking good. I don't get another one next month unfortunately, so there will be a huge change by December! My miracle baby!
From when we were in the er Tuesday. I was 7w6d according to my last period. Baby p 2.0 was measuring 6w1d and had a 108 hr. We go for my first real appt next friday at 9w2d
@nthurs10 you might want to repost your picture cropped. There are some creeper peepers out there and you don't want them to grab any personal info from your ultrasound.
I'm loving seeing all these! My first us is next Monday at 7w1d it's amazing how far away that seams! I'm dying to know everything is going well with baby!
I'm getting an ultrasound tomorrow (7w3d). Have people been getting abdominal or internal? Or both?
Mine was internal and it gave us such a good view of the baby AND we got to hear the heartbeat! I also had to provide a urine sample beforehand so it was nice that I didn't have to sit through that with a full bladder.
She also checked out my ovaries and tubes just to make sure all looked well.
Had my US today! Based on LMP I was due 7/3 but they moved me back to 7/14! (I knew I ovulated late so this wasn't a huge surprise) but it's very weird going from 8w-3d to 6w-6d. Glad to be back to a Tuesday ticker change like I was with DS!
Went in at 6w 4d last week. Wasn't expecting an ultrasound but got one! Heard heartbeat too! Was 104 so doc said heart had probably just formed in the last 24 hours.
I have my first us scheduled for this Thursday the 29th and I have my OB appointment the next day. When I called to make my appt I told the receptionist I would like to have an us done if at all possible. She told me she would ask the nurse who would ask my doctor. The receptionist called back a couple days later and went ahead scheduled my us. I'm a second time mom, not high risk, no previous mc. I just asked for one and they said yes. I will be 7w 4d at my us.
Can I ask a dumb question? How are all of you getting an US so early? Is it due to previous MC, high risk, after IUI or IVF, etc?
My next appt is November 16th - I'll be almost 11 weeks then and don't even know if I'll get an US at that one. I wanna see!

It really just depends on your Ob office. My last pregnancy, my first was the NT scan at 12 weeks. This time, they said they said their policy changed and are doing dating ultrasounds no matter what. Some do it, some don't.
@mrsschmity I wasn't expecting one! I asked beforehand what was involved and they said just general overview and confirmation. Then they would schedule my first ob after that. Well, after waiting for 2 hours (no joke) they said it is taking forever because they only had one machine. Dumb me asked what they needed a machine for. Didn't mind waiting two hours then, and DH was there bc can't drive and had a flat tire. Hope you get to see your little one at your appointment. I think it really just depends on the doctor. We could not find heartbeat without going internal - so hopefully you get to be spared that. DH was getting a kick out of that.
In my case, I had a previous mmc and had some spotting this time around so they brought me in early.
Last time they didn't see the OB until est. 8weeks (I was 7w1d). This time I saw the HB at 6w1d. It was nice to get an u/s earlier, but would have rather not ever been in the mc bucket...

@mrsschmity my doctor does a dating u/s at 7-9 weeks but skips the 12 week nuchal translucency u/s unless you're high risk. Some doctors prefer to do it for everyone and bump the dating u/s back to be at the same time, its just different offices with different policies and standard procedures.
6w2d... Saw the flickering heartbeat! I feel so relieved! It's funny... Baby measures about 2-3 days small and MD told me not to freak out.
The benefits of temping- I KNOW that I ovulated on CD 17 and not CD 14 so baby is actually right on target! MD thought that was pretty cool too.
@mrsschmity they did a transvaginal today to confirm pregnancy (not high risk)... Next one will be at 10 weeks. Didn't get a blood test, just an ultrasound. Not sure why my MD does this- but it sure made me happy!

I think it just depends on the Doctor. This is just when my doctor wanted me to go. It's nice to go early but you run the risk of it being too early and needing to go back. I'll only have one other US around 20 weeks for the anatomy scan.
@mrsschmity my drs office doesn't do any ultrasounds until 18 weeks for the anatomy scan. I've had three (Im 8+3) due to constant bleeding and cramping. My dr only does them before 18 weeks if there's a problem.
I still can't get over the difference a few days makes. Up there ^^^ I posted 6 weeks and 8 weeks (thursday) and this was today at 8.5 weeks. Look at the little arms!!! And already 2 inches long???
I had my first US tonight at 6W5D. I'm high risk which is why I got in early. Did an external and internal US and baby looks great! Saw the heart beat and the bpm was 126. So surreal! Such a cute little jellybean!
Edit: Forgot my due date. June 15th, exactly as I thought per my opk and temp chart.
Had my second U/S today. I thought I was 7 weeks 4 days due to an FET calculator, but doctor has me at 6 weeks 1 day. A bit confused, but I saw the fetal pole and heartbeat today, so I'm not complaining!
I love seeing all of these ultrasounds!! My first appointment isn't until December 10th...I dont know how I am going to wait so long. It isn't even for sure if we will get an ultrasound then. FXd little bean is doing well in there.
Had an ultrasound today! Finally have a due date. 6-14-16. Both of my other babies were born on the 13th of the month. Wouldn't it be crazy if we went 3 for 3?

Due date buddies! I think 3 on the 13th would be awesome!
Had another ultrasound (first at 6 weeks. now at 8 weeks. no issues. we are just playing it safe because this was a result of an IUI with very limited sperm viles of my husbands pre-cancer sperm, so they want to make sure all is going well)
Heartbeat is at 175 now! Measuring 3 days ahead [i am 8 weeks. measuring 8w3d] Due June 7th/4th
FTM...and first u/s tomorrow at 7w1d, based off LMP. I have Hashimoto Thyroiditis and my TSH had to be adjusted due to it being at 4.15. However, no results were ever added to MyChart or discussed with me in regards to hcg or progesterone level. Is anyone else getting the first u/s before conformation of hormone levels being in normal range?
Had an ultrasound today after a spotting scare this weeked. Doctor said everything looks good. I am 6 weeks 5 days according to my lmp and I am measured at 6+2. This will be our rainbow baby.,
