I love seeing all of these posts. Am I the only one that's afraid for their first ultrasound? My first one isn't until the 10th, I'll be 10 weeks. I'm so afraid they aren't going to find anything.
I was scared too. In fact, I am still nervous every time I get one done. (I have had 3). It's totally normal.
Had my first ultrasound today- our little person waved! And we were also in for a surprise- measuring about 10 weeks instead of the 8 I thought I was. Can't believe I'm already 25% done with this pregnancy!
Went in for first official u/s today. 8 weeks 5 days based on LMP. Finally got to see our precious baby and the heartbeat. My OB also pulled out the Doppler and we got to hear it too!! 175 bpm and measuring 9 weeks!! I feel so much better after finally seeing Bean!
Had my first prenatal visit and sono today! I'm 9 weeks today. Baby was measuring 9 weeks 4 days but they kept my original due date since it's within the same 7 day window. June 7th. We got to hear the heartbeat at 175 bpm and we even saw the little gummy bear wiggle around in there. Already in love!! :x
Had my dating u/s last night at 9w2d. Here's my little baby! We got to see the heart flicker! Heartbeat was 176 and they said s/he looks healthy. What an exciting experience that was!!!
I'm so jealous of all these cute pics! I had an US at 6 wks 4 days b/c of some issues, but it was in the ER and they didn't show me it or give me a copy to take home!! My DH was on a work trip at the time, so he wasn't there/ hasn't seen anything either. Apparently my doc doesn't do the next one until 20 weeks (so. far. away!)
I go in for my first US on Thursday--I'll be exactly 8 weeks. My first baby, and this thread is making me excited and nervous! My husband and I have been holding off on celebrating until this first checkup, since close friends just dealt with ending an unviable pregnancy. Once we get the all clear we'll break out the sparkling grape juice! Hope to be posting a pic here in a few days!
Had my 1st appt today and im 7w2d today. Due June 19th. Had a Mc last year on Oct 24th and found out this year I was prego on Oct 23rd. This will be our first child and we were so excited and shocked to see the baby and hear the hearbeat.
FTM... We had our first US on Monday which was also my birthday ♡ measured at 7w5d. We didn't hear the heartbeat bc the machine didn't have sound, but we could see the little heart fluttering on the monitor. So exciting, scary, emotional. Going back in about 2 weeks for the genetic screening/gender blood work & the next US will be at 12 weeks.
Oops! The picture didn't attach. Trying this again ---- This was taken last week at 9w1day. Baby June Bug measured right on track with a heart beat of 115 ((which I read was slow? Anyone else experience this?)).... The doctor seemed really positive about it and said everything looked great though! I'm 10 weeks today!
Little Baby! Wow! I'm now 8wks. Had an US two weeks ago and what a change! Saw the heart beating, arms, legs and baby was moving. It's very surreal! Our rainbow baby is due 6-15, day after our two year wedding anniversary. Love seeing everyone's pictures:)
Got our first us on Mon! It was our dating us and baby was 6w6d about 2 days off from where I thought. Baby had a good heart beat (126bpm) but the pictures weren't really clear yet. So exciting to see!
FTM! So excited to see how much my little gummy bear has grown in two weeks! 1st pic is at 6w5d, HR 147, and just a little blob with a flickering heart. 2nd & 3rd pics are at 8w5d, HR 176, and looked so much like a tiny baby with bitty arms and legs. Doc says baby is healthy and quite a dancer, it was moving and waiving all over the place. What a blessed moment to see!
Had my scan yesterday (too lazy to post). Appointment took forever, and my anxiety was through the roof. Baby measured a day behind where I was calculating, but my OB listened to me about when I O'd and went with my date. Hearing that heartbeat put the biggest smile on my face!
This isn't our first ultrasound, it's actually our 3rd! Our first was 5w5d (and saw a developing HB), then we had one at 6w5d and today was 8w! We will have one every week until I'm out of my first tri (3 previous losses and I have an incredible OB who is looking to keep my anxiety at bay!)
First appointment and first ultrasound today, both went so well. An unreal experience and instant love. Pic is not uploading well but we have a wiggly, growing little one in there for sure. Didn't get to hear the heartbeat but saw the flicker and doc says it's around 160 bpm. So happy and relieved to be past this milestone, it was a long 7 week wait!
Whew, what a relief to see that baby and that flickering heartbeat! Measured 10w1d (originally thought I was 9w3d) and have a new dd of June 2nd. Hooray! Congrats to all the mamas "meeting" their babies for the first time! Nothing like it, is there?
