Omg... I'm so relieved that there is a baby in there with a heart beat. They moved my due date to March 12 . Dr said I ovulated from both sides so I could have had twins...
We got to see our little wiggle worm again today. He or she is measuring at 9w3d, and had a really strong heartbeat of 173! Lots of movement which was so exciting to see Today was my last appt with my RE's office, so it was VERY bittersweet and some tears were shed.
@longliveregina I agree, and maybe we can keep this sticky so people can still see them, but just have the bump gods close it so no one will accidentally post. I will go ahead and start the new one.
I'm super bummed - I don't think I'm having an ultrasound at my first appointment next week. I know not all practices do an 8 week one, but the practice we went to with my daughter did. I switched to a new one this time so I could deliver at a more local hospital. She said on the phone that we would see the heartbeat.. But she must have meant to say "hear." I have super bad anxiety so I may try to push for one since I know my insurance covers it from last time.
@lindsey61811 you never know! She could have really meant hear! Lots of OBs have a tiny ultrasound machine they can wheel into the room. It's not as fancy as the ones at an actual ultrasound office, but it does the job!
@lindsey61811 I agree, at my first ultrasound we could see the heartbeat (actually, the US tech could see it, I couldn't really tell) but it was too early to hear it. I hope you get to see your baby, but if not, hearing the heartbeat will be a really cool experience too!

I didn't realize it was possible to see just the heartbeat but not the baby. Or am I misunderstanding? When she said we weren't having an ultrasound but would see the heartbeat I was super confused.
Ohhh. I didn't realize she specifically told you no ultrasound. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get the ultrasound. Even just to hear the heartbeat would be pretty cool. Please keep us posted!

Babies was hard to get in the same frame since they were not facing the same direction Both doing greaat HB 179 and 181 measuring at 9 weeks! Baby B was a little wiggle worm and danced a bit for us!! I almost cried again.... Can't wait to see them again in a week.
@MsDemi6@OnetiredMama we are going to keep this open and let the other one float away into the abyss, so you may want to repost here as well. Sorry for making it confusing!
I had another ultrasound on Thursday, 7 wks 5 days, measuring on schedule and HR 168! I have been completely MIA bc we had family in town all week, but I did want to check in about last week's u/s. I hope everyone had a relaxing weekend!

IVF #1 Retrieval: February 27- 21 eggs retrieved, 16 fertilized via ICSI
Had my first ultrasound last Friday. I was 8 weeks exactly that day. Baby is measuring at 8 weeks 2 days with a heart rate of 170. My ob said my EDD is March 17th (St. Patty's baby) but since I am having a repeat c/s the baby will be hear earlier because they schedule them no later than a week out from the Edd. My doc was trying to get a side profile pic but little one kept turning away.
Had my first US today at 8 weeks. One healthy little teddy graham in there with a strong heart rate of 181! Measuring ahead at 8 weeks 5 days. I'm so relieved and in love already
edited to add my doc is keeping our EDD of March 20th based on the first day of LMP.
@ashannon3490 I was tripped out by the 3D too! Measuring 8w 6d and that's on point with day I conceived and LMP. Heartbeat 182 which I thought was high but assured normal for this age.
I had my first appointment today and got an ultrasound. They first tried abdominal because the vaginal probe was in use, and couldn't see anything. The doctor also said during my pelvic exam that my uterus was so small that it didn't feel pregnant, so that was great.... We got the vaginal probe and saw my little nugget with a strong heartbeat (couldn't tell me the hear rate because it was older equipment) measuring ahead at 7w5d. Got a new due date of 3/23!
Had my first appointment today at 7wks, 2 days. We got to see the heart beat and it made everything so much more real! EDD still 3/26/17. So in love with that little alien headed shrimp already xoxo

Here is my first ultrasound. 6 weeks 6 days. Measuring at 6 weeks 5 days. Heart beat is 129. EDD is March 29th.
Enough statistics - hearing that heartbeat was the most incredible thing. So incredibly happy. All those worries and fears just disappeared for those few seconds. There is a person in there!
Here's my little one at exactly 9 weeks, EDD remains 3/15. Healthy heartbeat at 172. Even got to see it wiggle around some while they were taking measurements. My appointment was during my normal lunch time, so I was starving and ate a chocolate chewy bar before the scan. I think my baby just likes food and was doing a happy dance.
I did end up having an ultrasound today! We were so happy. Apparently they don't do an 8 week ultrasound, but if you ask, they bring out a little handheld device thing.
So I had an appointment today and based on LMP I was 9 weeks. During the ultrasound, OB noted that baby was looking much smaller than predicted age, more like 7 weeks. She didn't sound concerned since I was breastfeeding and taking birth control at the time of conception, but I can't help but to feel a tad anxious. She was able to detect a healthy heartbeat but not an accurate due date. I have another appointment next week for a more thorough scan for dating purposes. Any one else in this boat?
@mrsnc I'm in a similar situation with the baby measuring about 5 days behind but with a heartbeat. I go for another ultrasound next week too. My doctor says it "could" be totally normal or it could be one of the 1/3 of pregnancies that will end in misscarrage. Nothing to do but wait and hope. When my late night googling crazies hit I find it about 50/50 whether people are reporting positive outcomes. So much anxiety!
@mrsnc & @BaylieGirl Sending positive thoughts your way for good follow ups! I wouldn't solely go on LMP as that is used to guesstimate EDD based on a standard 28 day cycle -which most people don't have. When you ovulated is really what counts. If you have longer cycles/ovulate late, it is very possible to see something dating younger than what you would think. I don't know what your cases are, but I'm hoping it's just that and you both have positive outcomes!

Hey everyone, I've updated the spreadsheet with Singleton/Twins as based on the US pics so far, as well as any changed EDDs. If you do get an adjusted EDD but don't know how to change it, give me a shoutout and I'll be happy to do it!
