This is the place to post your photos from your ultrasounds. As we get father along and everyone has their anatomy scans as well, please keep them here as opposed to starting a new thread. Otherwise it will just clog up the board.

@babymish, I actually just got a call from my OB today saying she'll do a 7 week scan since *TW* I had a MMC in September. So I have an appointment now on February 15! I assume this means she's just using the portable machine in her office and not a full US. But I'll take what I can get!!!
I'm having my first ultrasound next week when I will be 6 weeks 4 days. I am so incredibly nervous amd anxious. Unfortunately we haven't had any successful pregnancies yet (2 miscarriages before this pregnancy) - so we are so hopeful this is our baby! Baby love to all of you!
I just had an ultrasound at 5 weeks and saw gestational sac. I was glad to see something!! No pictures though. Going back on the 20th to hopefully see baby!
I live in NY and the doctor doesn't see you here till 8 weeks. I'll prob call on Monday and get an appointment for March 1st since I should be around 4 weeks and 3 days today. During my first pregnancy, she did an internal US at my first checkup which is when I found out it wasn't a "good pregnancy" as she put it and it was a threatened MC. I had an US every week after that and eventually, I did miscarry. In a way I'm glad it was caught earlier so I could at least try different methods but I've accepted it was one of those things that wasn't meant to be then. Terrified for this time around but so very hopeful. I wish you all the best of luck!!

Agreed, I keep coming over here all excited when I see a post, and then I'm like ...
Hello everyone! I had my first scan today (they didn't give me a copy, bummer)( 6 weeks 1 day). My OB said i'm measuring at 5 weeks 1 day and with no visible yolk sac (only gestational). He told me i either ovulated later than i thought this month, or this may not be a viable pregnancy. His reaction seemed very surprised i wasn't further a long, which worried me. They did a blood test, and will have results on my levels tomorrow. Based on those numbers he'll reschedule my next ultrasound either in 3 days or a week... ugh, trying to stay optimistic.
@emwj10187 I will think good thoughts for you and hope that the dates are off.
My first one is this Friday. My doctor wants to do an early one to make sure things are progressing properly. He's a little concerned about my progesterone starting at 16 ng/dl on the first beta, but this seems like it's falling in the normal range (albeit the low end) so I'm staying optimistic.
TW: As everyone knows Ive been spotting this entire pregnancy which I didnt have with my first... and then had a MC in November so Ive been super worried. Had scan today and found to be right on track at 6+2 and saw a heartbeat today! Not out of the woods yet but SO VERY EXCITED!!! I convinced myself that it was going to be a bad scan (it was supposed to be tomorrow on my husbands birthday with him there but I didnt want to ruin it) so I reschedule for today. When i sent him the video of the littlw heart flickering towards the end you can hear me say "oh...hes gonna kill me" LOL. PGAL brain SUCKS! Here is the bean growing healthy and strong... thanks for the prayers.
Thank you so much, ladies! I really appreciate your kind words. I had some good news today from the doc. My beta levels were at 9000 indicating that my pregnancy is earlier than we initially thought. He said that they won't normally see a fetal pole/yolk sac until 10k-12k. He's confident he'd be able to see something as early as tomorrow. I scheduled my next ultra sound this coming Thursday, just to give it an extra day of growth. Hopefully I'll have something to show for it!
I also only saw a gestational sac at 5 weeks and dr wasn't concerned at all. I was excited to see anything because it was so early and I know I'm going to measure behind. I know I ovulated late (I always do) and I'm going back on the 20th. I'm not sure why some doctors are so quick to jump to conclusions.
@emwj10187 glad to see the good update wishing you the best on Thursday keep us posted
@momtobe613 congrats on hearing the heartbeat it is always a relief when you are able to see the ❤️ wishing you lots of luck on the progress of your pregnancy
I had an ultrasound on Monday (5.5 wks) and saw the sac, fetal pole and a flicker for the heartbeat. So relieving! I go back in 10 days for my final ultrasound and hopefully I will graduate from the specialist then!!
We had a very dramatic and heart wrenching 24 hours. TW* I had to go on a work trip to Chicago on Monday (from London) and was due to fly back last night, but yesterday morning I put my progesterone suppository in and the applicator came out covered in red blood. I then began to bleed watery red blood. I have had a couple of small spotting episodes previously of pink or brown blood, but this was red. Long story short - my boss had to book me on the first flight home, I got in at midnight and they moved my scan from this afternoon to this morning. End TW*
We were so nervous. but I'm so happy to report we saw the baby (measuring 3.8mm) and heard and saw the heartbeat of 105bpm. I didn't realise you could actually see the heart pulsating, that was so amazing. I cried - a lot. The doctor could see some old blood pooled in my uterus which could have been the cause of the bleed, but I also have irritation from the progesterone.
So after transferring our last 2 frozen blasts, I am finally pregnant with 1 baby. So surreal to actually see it.
I had a scan yesterday! No picture though, just went in due to cramping and back pain and they seen my littlest love with a HB of 106, measuring 5 weeks 6 days. The told me I have a subchorionic hemorrhage which she said usually resolves itself but of course makes me high risk, which I already am due to my age (40) and I am overweight according to all the fun guidelines. So I am used to being high risk during my pregnancies I get plenty of scans I also have varicose veins in my uterus and a cyst on my right ovary which I always have during pregnancy. I had not had any bleeding but last night I had some watery blood and I been achy and crampy for a few days but that might be the PVCS . Told me to not do anything strenuous and I will for another scan in 2 weeks. I will be a mess every day. But in some ways I am happy I went in for that scan BEFORE seeing that blood or I might have lost my mind.
Just had my first ultrasound this morning only saw the gestational sac but the tech said that's all that she'd expect to see because I am so early I am measuring right on track with my lmp at 5w2days- we go back in 3 1/2 weeks I can't wait to actually see more and hear the heartbeat- these next few weeks are going to dragggg
Ok Ladies, i have great news to report. Went in for my follow up scan today (very nervous) and we found our little bean. I'm measuring at 5 weeks 5 days (exactly one week behind what we thought) We saw the yolk sac, fetal pole, and a nice healthy heartbeat. Thank you to those you sent me kind words of encouragement. Right now my due date is October 7th, i go back in two weeks for an official dating scan.
