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?
When did you get a positive test? With bfing and bc, it's hard to know When you ovulated. You May have just ovulated 2 weejs later than the "normal" two weeks post lmp.
@longliveregina I'm pretty sure I did just ovulate later. I got my positive on July 18. I think after the initial shock of not knowing a due date right away, I've calmed down. I mean there was a heartbeat and everything else looked good. I've had no signs that might indicate miscarriage. @BaylieGirl I can't believe your doctor told you it might end in miscarriage because you're measuring 5 days smaller! I think that just would cause unnessecary stress. My DD was 5 days late, so I don't really think 5 days would be cause for concern.
Hello, friends! Last Tuesday I had my first ultrasound. I almost cried when I heard his little heart beat (122 bmp). Apparently, the CRL revealed that the EDD is a little bit later, on April the 2nd.
@missmckee83 I am sorry for the mixed news you received. I am sending you love while you work through your thoughts. Continuing to pray for the babes growing beautifully.

My ob never said anything close to being concerned about my baby measuring smaller...just asked if I was positive when my LMP was which I was a little offended by because I've only been asked that a million times already hopefully it's just the same case that my cycle wasn't exactly 28 days so my ovulation wasn't during the same time you'd expect after a period.
@missmckee83 sorry about the mixed news. Happy thoughts for your remaining two beans

Appt with ultrasound yesterday. Everything looked good. He said I was measuring about a week behind but we aren't changing anything quite yet. Heartbeat was seen but not heard. Maybe next time. Lol. I did get a script for Zofran since I have been so nauseated. Honestly I was happy to see just one baby. You all had me freaking out with so many multiples in this group. Hahaha Have a good weekend everyone!!

So excited to have just had our first ultrasound today! Measuring right on track at 8 weeks with a little heart beating at 168 bpm. So awesome -- and now it all feels more real!
Little peanut at 8 weeks, HR 164bpm, everything looking "normal", and on track for a March 22 due date. Hearing the heartbeat was surreal and I definitely cried. Wishing everyone happy healthy prenatal visits ❤️
I'm one of the EDD March 1st(ish) ladies, so I have one of the biggest babies (I can tell which side is the butt and which side is the head this time!!!)... this is from Friday but I hadn't had a chance to sit down and crop my name out of it until now.
Still a 160 bpm heartbeat (I LOVE hearing the heartbeat). I wish I knew what was up with the shape on top of its head. My husband didn't know narwhals were real animals until he was 29 and we had a fight about it--he literally thought I photoshopped the picture I was using to try to prove to him they exist--and now he says we're having a narwhal baby as punishment.

Hello ladies! So my first appt. got bumped from 8/22 to this wednesday! My my calculations I will be 8w1d. I am so over the moon excited, but also completely terrified. I am so scared to hear bad news. Anyone else feel like this before the first appt? Ahh Come on 48 hours
@GG620 That's exciting that it got moved up! And yes I definitely felt that way, up until the very moment we saw the baby lol. At first when he was searching around I was like "well there's nothing in there, I can't see anything!" minor freak out in my mind haha. Try to be calm and just excited that it got moved up! Hope everything goes well for you!
@Schumerator yes! I have this horrid fear that no one will be in there! I am trying not to focus on that though and am super, ultra excited that it got moved up! haha. If we get a healthy little bean and see/hear the heartbeat, we will tell our parents this Sunday and I am just so excited!
Officially 9 weeks today! EDD March 19th. We were able to hear the heartbeat today (169), definitely had tears in my eyes. We have been "discharged" from our fertility specialist and have my first appointment with my regular OB/GYN next Wednesday. So we might get to see our little baby again then!
Ahhhhh @EnglishTeacherMama that's so cool!! I'm a day behind you, so crazy to have a great profile already

First real appointment today. Add me to the twin club!
It was hard to get a great picture because they are "in an offset two flat" as the ultrasound tech put it. They are di/di and both measuring ahead by 2 days (9 weeks). Heart rates 174 and 179. We were able to see and hear both!
I am in shock! Twins do not run in my family and I didn't do any fertility treatments.
I had my first appointment today and my EDD was changed to 3/30/17, making today 7+4. Heartbeat 170 bpm. Despite taking all the tests, seeing it makes it really official.
The only good thing about falling down the stairs is getting an extra ultrasound. Fortunately, I didn't have to push for an appt., and they already had the machine ready to go when I got to the patient room. Apparently, pregnant ladies falling down stairs is quite common, and my clinic is used to soothing the BSC! Works for me. Here's our little Piplup, measuring ahead at 10w1d and looking more like a human baby! Looks like I might need to leave the Tuesday ticker change.
I'm getting a little nervous for my us Friday...I only want one in there, lol!
@longliveregina I was seriously about to write this exact post! I have my first ultrasound today and I just keep thinking "please only one, please only one"!
Love seeing all these ultrasounds!! I've got mine this thursday.. let's see if the twin madness continues just kidding.. all i want is a healthy baby.. keep dreaming there's nothing in there..
Finally made it to ultrasound day!! And get to join the AWpics!! Beautiful dancing baby with a heart rate of 155! measuring ahead at 13weeks!! ...I don't fully trust it cuz of my LMP and I make really big babies. Hah. So EDD moved a few days into February but Im sticking around here!!
Yay I get to go here now! First ultrasound measured ahead at 8w5d with a strong hb 179bpm! @Schumerator my first thought when I saw this view was frog-baby!
Finally got my ultrasound today!! I'm pretty sure my doctor has the dinosaur of ultrasound machines but it worked healthy little heartbeat at 160bpm. She didn't actually measure the CRL but she was confident that I'm measuring at 10 weeks.
