Ultrasounds!

kschref · March 2017

This thread is for pictures from our ultrasounds throughout the next nine months!!!

If you have an upcoming u/s appointment, please don't tell us here. You can share that in the weekly appointment thread and/or your ticker change thread to help us keep this one relatively clean.

Please check your picture before sharing to make sure that any personal information you don't want to share with everyone is covered up.

Some love to start their own threads to AW happy moments. That is fine too! Also please share the picture in here if you feel so inclined. There are never too many places to celebrate these little ones and their mamas.

@bumpCaitlin @bumpTara @bumpAdmin can we sticky this thread please.

I had an ultrasound done yesterday due to some history with cysts in my ovaries that were giving me a false positive. Dr cofirmed that this is in fact a pregnancy...yay!!! They had estimated I was 5w5d, but I knew that wasn't possible because I know when I ovulated. I'm only 4 weeks as of yesterday so my EDD moved to 11/13. Say hello to my smalls ❤

liahay · March 2017

@jusmel21 congrats!! We share an EDD! I'll have my first ultrasound next week... can't wait!

jusmel21 · March 2017

@liahay thank you! Good luck at your ultrasound next week

@SarahEmmons330 You may want to change your username and / or remove your personal info from the ultrasound. It's easy to do a Google search with more information about you and we don't want creepers to do that!!

Hi all! I am about 6 weeks pregnant. My doctor has had me do 3 blood test since we found out I was pregnant and he said my numbers are increasing nicely. This morning when he called with the least blood work results, which we're great!, he told me that he wants me to go for a transvaginal ultrasound. I was able to schedule for tomorrow afternoon. I am very nervous for this. When I called to make the appointment, i was tols that the tech will do it and will call my doctor with the results. Has anyone had one before? How long did it take you to get the results? Won't I be able to see the sac on the screen? I'm just very nervous

SarahEmmons330 · March 2017

I am really not that concerned if someone knows my first and last name. I understand that y'all went through something but being so suspicious of everyone has got to be exhausting. It's not like it has my ssn, address, phone number or anything else on it and someone could find my name on anything, not just from a username on a website

Looks like it has your birthdate? That is a BIG piece of info for indentity theft.

And I'm done with the bump, I enjoyed it when I was pregnant with my son but y'all are not a fun group at all. Have a great pregnancy!

Haha this is hilarious. There are women here who are actually being nice to you on advice on where you would be suceptible to revealing personal information on the internet and you think you are being attacked.

DuchessOfCambridge · March 2017

@SarahEmmons330 you're free to do whatever you want, I wouldn't say the women on this board are overly suspicious, just a normal level of hesitant to give away personal info on the internet. The threat doesn't seem that real until it happens to you. It was really just out of concern for you and your safety, and @nytino24 did it in a really nice, non aggressive way. But, if it's not something you're worried about, it's your choice to post what you want. It's too bad because of this you felt like you had to leave.

I'm a barrel of monkeys, you're missing out.

But for real. These ladies were just trying to be helpful.

NYTino24 · March 2017

Thank you, @DuchessOfCambridge. I do family tree research as a hobby and it's scary how easy it is to find personal information.
She obviously deleted her ultrasound after @ShePersisted pointed out her birthdate was there. She has also posted pics of herself and her son, so it's not a concern for her. It's fine for those who want to do it and no one is judging. Just trying to be helpful.

No reason to be scared but I can understand nervousness. I have one this Friday and even though I know what to expect it makes me nervous. Yes depending on how far along you are, you should be able to see the baby in screen and tech might be able to point it to you. But not all tech talk during screening. You can always ask for a pic.

Just had my ultrasound! I'm 6 weeks 4 days but baby is measuring 7 weeks! Got to see the heartbeat! After two MC this was amazing news! I cried while she was showing us! My due date was changed now to October 31...but if you girls don't mind me staying here in the November club, I'd like to stay here!

kschref · March 2017

@wenninger2016 - Great news!!!

heatherdubrow · March 2017

Congrats @wenninger2016!!

brittrigdon-2 · March 2017

@stefpet22 I had an u/s last week at 5 weeks and got to see that there was a gestational sac. It was only with the ultrasound tech and she was amazing! She was even able to tell me which side I ovulated from which I found astonishing. They even printed me a photo right then and there. Ask questions, if youre before 6 weeks you may not see a baby but they can show you that everything is still on track. Good luck!

brittrigdon-2 · March 2017

@wenninger2016 I have my next U/S Friday and will be 6 weeks 5 days then. I'm really praying for a little one and a heart beat on the monitor! Congrats on your news!

@wenninger2016 that's so wonderful!

SweetMelissa4 · March 2017

After some scariness, spotting, and cramping, I got to see baby's heartbeat today! I'm 6+2 but baby is so small they just called it 6 weeks. So happy!!!!! I go again in 2 weeks.

Furmommy · March 2017

@SweetMelissa4 So happy you got to see the heartbeat!! I hope everything continues to go well!

sarebear55 · March 2017

Here is my sweet little shrimp! Doc told me today I'm 6+5. HB was 130 and the most wonderful sound!!

DuchessOfCambridge · March 2017

I'm so obsessed with this thread! Love seeing these itty bitties!

CubsFan7 · March 2017

I had my ultrasound today. I am 5 weeks 6 days and measuring right on time. Heartbeat is 102. I do have a small SCH and am nervous about it but I've been released to my ob.

Edited to add heartbeat and correct spellings

Me, too! I'm smiling like an idiot for all you ladies while looking at your pics!

ShePersisted · March 2017

@CubsFan7 that's amazing. I never knew you could detect a HB that early. I was always told you have to be close to 7 weeks.

juliannacarter97 · March 2017

Had pain in the left side so i had ultrasound done today and the yolk sac measured 5w5d but midwife said we would still call it 6 weeks and check back for another ultrasound in a week for hb as we didn't get one todattoday and I've had two miscarriage and one birth. Wish me luck mamas!

c+mpeachey · March 2017

My little Spot. 6w4d

All is well.

mispanda · March 2017

@c+mpeachey I've been totally watching this giraffe too long to have her baby because your little bean looks like a baby giraffe. I'm saying that in the cutest most adorable way.

Maybe it's my thing- my first us with my dd I thought it looked like a squirrel.
Glad all is well!!!!!

Had my 1st ultrasound this morning, 7w0d today. Heartbeat at 136bpm, all is well! Since I am an IVF patient, my Infertility Dr will see me again next week at 8weeks for another ultrasound before releasing me to my OB.

Seeing the little heart flicker today was just so magical! I'm one happy mama this morning.

chrissyk85 · March 2017

Had an US yesterday, I thought I was about 8 weeks but Im measuring 5w5d. There was only the sack and yolk..Going back next Friday for another US hoping that there is development and a HB! The stress and nervousness!

sarebear55 · March 2017

@mispanda I get what you mean... That's why I said my little shrimp... It was the first thing I said when I saw my LO on the screen ❤️

Godgavemeyou83 · March 2017

After 4 chemical pregnancies last year, we finally got to see a strong heartbeat on my little jellybean today. Wow, there's nothing like it - Such a blessing,

a miracle!! Nov 6, 2017 is when we will finally meet our little love.

ideamainline · March 2017

It's been a really scary week, so I could use all the good vibes you ladies can share. Late Tuesday night I started bleeding and thought I was miscarrying; I've never cried so hard in my life. Got in for emergency appointments Wednesday (did I mention I started a new job this week? great timing.) and had a transvaginal ultrasound, expecting the very very very worst. Instead, they found this little one and its 130bpm heartbeat.

I'm a long way from out of the woods; they don't know why I started bleeding, and I'm still spotting some. Every twinge scares me. But my husband and I got to see my baby's strong heartbeat at 6 weeks 1 day, and I am clinging to that. I go back in a week and a half to have another ultrasound and my first 'real' appointment at 8 weeks.

@e.white sending you so many positive vibes!

NYTino24 · March 2017

Congratulations @Godgavemeyou83! E.White, we can't tag you unless you log into The Knot and remove the . in your username. Sending good thoughts your way!

@ShePersisted While "uncommon", a heartbeat can be detected as early as 6 weeks. *TW* My baby had a heartbeat before my MC even though it was measuring 6 weeks when it was really 8 weeks. */TW*

ideamainline · March 2017

Brilliant, @NYTino24 - I had no idea why tags didn't work on me. Hopefully fixed now; thanks for the tech help and the good vibes!
