If you have an appointment this week, feel free to post about it here!

juliehollz13 · April 2016

I should be graduating from the RE this Thursday @ my 9 week ultrasound. Hoping and praying everything looks good and that my OBGYN can get me in ASAP as well.

mimi603107 · April 2016

My first appointment is tomorrow. Excited that it's finally here but nervous because I had some bright red bleeding on Friday after dh and I dtd. We both kind of freaked out because (tmi) when he pulled out it was on him. But after cleaning up, I haven't spotted at all and the bleeding was almost watery I guess...so I'm hoping that works in my favor

mimi603107 · April 2016

@juliehollz13 I hope your ultrasound goes well!

cayaylonglegs · April 2016

I am at my first appt since graduating from my RE right now. Hoping all goes well!

*TW loss mentioned

I had my first appointment this morning! It went well. The NP at my OB office is so sweet. We talked about the m/c we had in October and she was very reassuring and reiterated that if I feel crampy or whatever to not hesitate to call and they'll get me in ASAP.

Next appointment is May 11 for an ultrasound! They're getting the ball rolling on appointments quicker this time, which also calms my PGAL nerves. Day by day, right?

sourlemon · April 2016

First ultrasound is tomorrow afternoon. I'm dying sitting at work waiting for today (and tomorrow) to go by.

Sugargirl1019 · April 2016

Lots of u/s tomorrow!!! My first is tomorrow as well. I'm really excited!

jptrumptone · April 2016

Mine first U/S is tomorrow too! I'll be 8 weeks exactly and it should be last appointment at the fertility clinic (I don't technically see an RE, but a OB/GYN cause our issues are male factor). Then in 2 more weeks I meet with the OB/GYN for the first time.

jenlynne0624 · April 2016

@jptrumptone we have the same due date!

I have an appointment Weds for just a regular check up, the whole pee in a cup, weight (boo), doppler, any questions? Kbye appointment. Hopefully the toddler behaves. I already had my dating ultrasound and I'll only get one more and that'll be the anatomy scan.

My first ultrasound is this afternoon and I am a bundle of nerves! After the past two losses I can't help but try to prepare myself for the worst. I am praying that this one is a happy appointment with a healthy baby.

Gizmo1231 · April 2016

TW

headed in today because of some bleeding. Saying prayers for a sticky baby.

princesslockness · April 2016

I am jealous of all the USs. I will get the AS and that is most likely it.

I go in this afternoon for the basic pee in a cup, maybe blood draw, set up a payment plan. Not very fun, but at least its something.

LinziLoo09 · April 2016

Sending positive thoughts to all of you at your appts this week, and I hope everyone who is feeling worried receives reassuance very soon! We just have a pregnancy confirmation appt tomorrow. I didn't plan to have a visit so soon, but it works for me. Make sure all those sticks I've peed on aren't lying and such!

cjt121413 · April 2016

@Gizmo1231 FX crossed that everything goes well and you get to see a nice, strong heartbeat today.

Good luck to everyone else, too!

I'm supposed to have a u/s this week, although I'm not sure exactly when. Praying like crazy that we'll get to see a HB.

em01092 · April 2016

First u/s tomorrow for me too! My calculations have me at 7 weeks 5 days tomorrow. I am so nervous. Trying not to think about it but of course that is impossible!

SA0012 · April 2016

I'm still super early so no appointments scheduled yet. I'm doing a home birth this time around and my midwife said to schedule the first appointment with her between 10 and 12 weeks. I would have been crushed my first time around but I feel more patient this time and we're opting out of all routine ultrasounds anyway so we'll just be missing out on the hearing the beautiful heartbeat. So that is a bummer, but it sure will be glorious when it happens

egray1012 · April 2016

My appointment is Thursday. It can not get here quick enough. It will be my first one other than going for betas last week. Since I've had 2 miscarriages I hope they go ahead and do an ultrasound so I can ease my mind a bit.

Glitter · April 2016

Good Luck to everyone...I cant wait to hear all the news and see some new pics in the U/S thread.

TheRealVeronicaSawyer · April 2016

I had another ultrasound this morning. We saw a good heartbeat which was awesome. But, the baby is measuring 4 days behind. I went last Tuesday, and the baby was measuring just one day behind. The NP at my RE's office said that the most important thing was the heartbeat, but I can't help but be worried. I know no one else's experience has any bearing on mine, but has anyone else ever been in the same shoes?

H4aPartyof5 · April 2016

I have my first appointment and dating US on Thursday at 8 weeks exactly. Good luck to everyone going in for their appointments today and later this week. I hope they all go well.

@beff12, glad that your appointment went well and that the NP set your mind at ease.

@gizmo1231, hope everything goes well at your appointment.

@TheRealVeronicaSawyer, I don't have any experience with something like that, but I'm glad that your US showed a strong HB and fingers crossed that your next US sets your mind at ease.

@TheRealVeronicaSawyerMy first U/S I was 6 days behind in measurements. I went back to FF and I had ovulated on day 18, rather than the 14 they estimate off of. I go back on Wednesday to check for growth. I will tell them about my estimated O (via temp shift and CM) and hope for a weeks worth of growth. I think there's a few of us measuring behind right now. I posted about it on the U/S thread last week and got a few good responses. FX for you!

R0824H · April 2016

@gizmo1231 thinking of you! and FX to everyone else with appointments this week!

My next U/S is on Wednesday and I'm really hoping to see a HB!! Scared and excited all in one!

Gizmo1231 · April 2016

Thanks ladies- happy to report little one is measuring exactly on track at 7w2d and had a strong HB of 144. Next U/S is next Tuesday and we will see the doctor then too.

So glad to hear this!! Yay!

ashcakes921 · April 2016

I go tomorrow morning for my first appointment! I hope I get an ultrasound for dating like they did with my first baby. I will be kind of bummed otherwise

AMack1216 · April 2016

My first appt is Thursday and I will be 8w2d. I want to see that heart beating so very badly! This has been the longest 3 weeks of my life.

jennbaylor12 · April 2016

My first appt is tomorrow - supposed to be just the first confirmation appt, I'll be 7w1d. I've had 4 separate occasions of red spotting and had repeat HCG blood draws Friday and today so I'm hoping they'll do an ultrasound to take a look..... I spotted with DS at this stage though so I'm staying positive :-)

H4aPartyof5 · April 2016

Great news @Gizmo1231!

ChastainMT · April 2016

I have my first appointment tomorrow. Ultrasound, bloodwork, an weight. I'm also having a scan on my leg to look at a sore bump in vein. I'm excited to have my nerves calmed and hopefully see/hear a strong heartbeat.

MamaWino · April 2016

I graduated from my RE today! I had my final u/s with them this morning, showing baby measuring right on track (8w1d) with a strong heartbeat of 159bpm. It was so bittersweet leaving the office but I'm excited to get back to my regular OB next week!

ashcakes921 · April 2016

For some reason, my stomach is in knots like no one's business right now. I don't remember feeling like this with my first. Its almost like I'm expecting bad news tomorrow. Stupid hormones

cmmxv8 · April 2016

Hi everyone - it's so wonderful to hear about all of you who are graduating from your REs - it gives me such hope at 5 weeks that I can make it through and all will be well. sometimes I feel like I'm the only one crazy enough to have worked so hard to get pregnant only to sit and worry so much now that I am finally pregnant - but it seems that pit is the stomach worry leading up to the ultrasound is quite common (maybe I'm not so crazy after all). Had my second beta today after quite literally convincing myself something was wrong only to find out all is okay. Anyway congrats to all the infertility graduates and good luck to the rest of you with ultrasounds around the corner

mimi603107 · April 2016

Had my first appointment this morning and everything looks good

No lingering blood from my bleeding on Friday so that's a huge weight off my shoulders, yay! Scheduled my first ultrasound appointment for next Thursday the 5th and I should be 6 weeks 4 days.

ashcakes921 · April 2016

I had my first appointment this morning with a dating ultrasound. They have me measuring 8+3 but 8+6 based off LMP. Since it's such an small difference, they're actually keeping my EDD at 11/30 instead of pushing it to December like I thought they would. Hopefully I'm welcome to stick around here lol

jptrumptone · April 2016

I had my last appointment at my Fertility clinic today (well until its time for #2, or if we want another u/s from them). Doctor was so happy for us! I'm posting the u/s in the the u/s thread, but the heart beat was 163! measured at 7+6 which means we are due on Dec. 7th.

washyourhandsplease · April 2016

Had my appointment this morning with the doctor and she did my ultrasound. I was measuring exactly 7 weeks. Baby had a good heartbeat. I go back on May 20th to do the Verifi test and my annual. Thereafter, I will see her every other week because I'm high risk.

LinziLoo09 · April 2016

We had a very anticlimactic pregnancy confirmation appt just now. I'm officially doctor-confirmed pregnant, so it's not just me seeing lines

More exciting, they set us up for our dating US in 2 weeks. I can't wait. I know I'm generally a wreck all through first tri, but seeing a heartbeat is one hurdle down. I'm looking forward to it!

Sugargirl1019 · April 2016

*TW*

Just had my first u/s.. I should be 7+5 but I'm measuring only 6 weeks. Saw the heart beat.. But I'm a nurse and I know what to look for. It was too slow. I had hcg and progesterone drawn and may have again in Thursday to see if it doubles. She said not to worry, but I think she was just being nice. "Maybe you ovulated late?" I got my BFP 10 DPO, so no i don't think thats possible. Who measures almost 2 weeks behind and is NOT going to lose the baby? .. I'm in a pretty low place. I go next Thursday for another scan.

princesslockness · April 2016

@Sugargirl1019 Fingers Crossed for you! Also I sent you a pm.

LinziLoo09 · April 2016

@Sugargirl1019 I hope you receive positive news soon and that it was just a bad scan or something. I'm thinking of and praying for you. <hugs>
