Had my first OB appointment (7w3d) and got to have a quick scan in her office. We don't get an official US until 20 weeks. But we got to see a beautiful heartbeat today! And my awesome OB booked me for another appointment in 3 weeks for peace of mind instead of making me wait 5 weeks as normally is done.
Had my ultrasound this morning. I was so scared because my symptoms are super mild in comparison to most of the people posting in the symptoms thread. I had to go to work right after so I was extra worried about how I would be able to hold myself together if it was bad news. There's a woman I knew I'd be working with who is pregnant and that's all they talk about....I knew I wouldn't be able to handle being around her. Luckily it worked out and we got to see our little one's heart flickering away on the screen....I was so elated!!! He (I think it's a boy although I'd be thrilled with a girl!) is measuring a couple days behind but my RE isn't concerned. He says that it's common and the discrepancy isn't big enough to be an issue. I go back in two weeks for my final U/S before graduating to my OB I'm on cloud 9!

ultrasound did not go as well as I'd hoped. he said it looks like I'm measuring behind but it's possible I could have ovulated later. he also said it appeared there was cardiac activity, we all saw the fluttering but it seemed slow to me... like a flap instead of a flutter if that makes any scense. I go back next week to see the sonographer and calling him tomorrow to talk about my labs. I'm preparing myself for the worst

Fingers crossed for you that it's just early! Try to enjoy the moments you have right now. Today you are pregnant and that in itself is amazing! I'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts!
My appointment was yesterday! Everything looks great! Right on track with due date of Oct. 3rd. Heartbeat was perfect 171 bpm. Can't wait for my next appointment!
I ended up with two ultrasounds due to a bit of a scare with spotting. They also changed my due date with the second ultrasound. 5 weeks - gestational sac and yolk sac 6 weeks and 1 day - baby is the size of a grain of rice and had a good heartbeat
Hi ladies! Here's my ultrasound pic from last week when I was exactly 7 weeks. We were pretty shocked to see two sacs! Both heartbeats were around 133-135 and measuring right on track.
That is an awesome u/s pics. Wishing you a very healthy pregnancy. I'm praying for a similar outcome on Friday I will be 7 weeks then. Do you know the sex of the twins?
Thanks @cherrybea hoping the same for you on Friday! Please update this board with your picture:) We didn't do PGS, so I don't know the sexes, but I am getting a blood chromosome test done in a few weeks and they'll be able to tell me if there are any "y" chromosomes present...basically with twins they can only say if there's a least one boy or if there's two girls (no Y chromosomes). So we will find out soon!

7 weeks exactly! I knew I was measuring behind and I was right on the nose! Heartbeat sounded so cool and was 140--dr said that's not bad but a little slow and wants to see me back again in 2 weeks...but looking online it seems totally fine so I'm not going to worry
Ahh, I go here now! I had an early u/s today because I was freaking out at home (was scheduled to be scanned on Thursday) and I was expecting the worst.
Thankfully, we were able to see our little blob and after a few tries, managed to capture the HB beating away away the 156. There were tears and weird squeaking noises from me, I had genuinely expected to get bad news.
My doc didnt give me a picture because she said of her "Indian superstitions", so you'll just have to trust me that there's a blob in there.

@cythe that's awesome you got to see your little bean! Exciting! However, I'd be pissed if my dr's beliefs prevented me from having a printed picture. That makes no sense to me what so ever !!! She's a paid professional.

Oh, my RE has been through hell and back with me so I in no way am upset. I got to see it, and that's all that matters for now. I could have gotten one if I asked. She said she always gives them on the last appointment (before we graduate to the OB)

Welp here we go 7weeks 6days!! So excited. We will be 8 tomorrow.
I typed a very long paragraph but it only posted a piece of it, so I'm beyond aggravated...
Anyways, everything checked out fine HB was at a very strong 173,Yay! We took the liberty to give the baby a nickname,haha. So here is our Little Chicken Nugget
Had a great follow up ultrasound today!! Measuring 7weeks3days and right on track for Oct7th due date. Heart beat was strong and doc was happy to see everything where it should be. This picture doesn't do it justice! We were able to see the head and leg buds. So cute!! I'm officially off high risk watch and go back for my next scan at the end of the first trimester!
@SwtAnana we are in the same boat! I've had very mild symptoms almost like I'm not even pregnant! Went yesterday for a scan we seen the HB, 153. And they say he's measuring about 6 days behind. But it's so early right now that's all they really can say. I believe my other pregnancies I measured always a little behind. I won't say it to anyone else but I'm thinking boy here too. Thinking we might not find out this time, this will be our last baby, my 6th I have all daughters so maybe I'm just hopeful but I think I'll leave it be a surprise. I get the blood test done too and usually get to find out gender at like 15 weeks. My hubby wants to know but I really think I'll make him wait haha
@WRWrunnergirl mine too! I got bumped back 6 days! I had an early scan because of cramping, found a small sch and had a tiny bit of spotting. Got my scan yesterday told me I was measuring behind and my sch was very small not to worry or change anything in my daily routine. Seen a hb of 153. My last period was hard for them to go by anyway because it was the only period I got after getting my nexplanon removed.
Haha @Sprinkles It's done that to me so much!! I said forget it, just write a short summary Lol. But I'm going to copy and past too. Crazy my pea brain couldn't come up with that
Just got our first ultrasound! Baby is looking good, heartbeat was detected right away at 153bpm and baby's pretty tiny. I'm so excited to see it grow more.
Baby is measuring 4 days ahead of where I was at 6 week scan. They didn't mention a new due date. So far, everything looks healthy! Hope this little one keeps growing strong!
Had our first ultrasound, what an amazing sight! Baby is measuring right on track at 5 weeks 5 days. We will go back next week to hear the heartbeat! I'm so in love already!Baby
I don't have my first U/S until next Tuesday, but I just want to say that I love seeing all of your little beans! Partially because I'm so happy for all of you, and partially because it gives me hope that mine will be just as present and healthy.
@soprano19 i feel the same way! My first u/s is on the 27th but I LOVE seeing these beautiful images of baby beans it makes me happy during the long wait to see my own. I hope and pray to see a strong hb. Staying positive. Wishing the same for you too

Here's our baby pea! My periods are always 100% predictable but for some reason they're saying we're at 6 weeks not 8. Which was definitely disappointing but at least we've got a baby with a heartbeat! 136! Thank you Jesus! Due date moved from 10/2 to 10/13 according to tech. Will hear from doctor tomorrow! Thanks for sharing, everyone! Loving the pix!
turns out our first u/s was just a little early, thank God!!! here is our sweet little bean measuring 7w2d. heartbeat a wonderful143 bpm. sonographer was very happy with everything and so are we!
