  I had a dating ultrasound yesterday. This is my 5th pregnancy but my first to have minimal morning sickness or other symptoms so I had myself pretty much convinced that we were going to have bad news at the appointment. I had taken a step back from these boards for about a week because the anxiety was just getting to much.
  
  Anyway, baby ended up looking great. I was 9w6d based on lmp but baby measured 9w exactly which wasn't surprising since breastfeeding made my cycles longer than usual. Nice strong heartbeat so I am super relieved and even a bit surprised. New due date is Feb 13

  I had a dating US yesterday also.  Everything looked exactly like it is supposed to.  Such a relief.  The heart rate was 171.

  @sabriel1 girl I've been feeling the same way! So At least with DS I felt kinda sick, think time I'm pretty good and it's making me anxious. Also going for my dating scan in a few days! Kinda nice to hear others are feeling the same and things were fine

  @sabriel1 so glad everything is okay! I've had way less symptoms this pregnancy too and don't have another appointment until the end of August!

  I had my dating appointment Monday--due date was pushed back to 2/27 (just a few days after LMP date).  We saw the little coffee bean and heard the heartbeat (157).  My doctor likes to see her patients (who have had previous losses) every 2 weeks through the first tri, which is will help with my anxiety.
  
  @sabriel1 and @olitwinturbosnprincess  Congrats on a healthy little heartbeat!  It is always such a relief to see everything going well.

  I also had an ultrasound yesterday. I'm actually only 7 weeks, not 8. ☹But baby is healthy, and there is only 1 in there.

  Yay @sabriel1 and @olitwinturbosnprincess and @magnolia305 great news! I heard the heartbeat at my dating ultrasound, but they didn't tell me beats per minute, so a bit jealous haha!
  
  I can apparently get my NIPT blood drawn today. (I'm 11 weeks tomorrow.) I don't know why I'm so nervous!

  My dating ultrasound is Friday. I'm expecting it to match date of ovulation, assuming everything is going well. Once they have a confirmed date I can schedule the cfDNA screening.

  Had my dating ultrasound. Was more emotional than expected as I've had some spotting, (although I know it's can be normal- it still got in my head a lot) everything was brilliant and my toddler kept pointing at the screen saying "baby baby" which was sweet!

  @ashhsa Glad you had a good ultrasound!  That is adorable about your toddler saying that!

  I have my first ultrasound on Tuesday just a day shy of 11 weeks. The wait is driving me crazy since we haven't had a chance to even hear the heartbeat yet. My anxiety is making this last week feel like an eternity. I just want to know if everything's Ok!

  Had a dating ultrasound on Wednesday. I had gone 2 weeks ago thinking I was 8 weeks but turned out to only be 6 weeks. We saw the heartbeat and they said everything looked fine and there was no reason to think I'd miscarry. But I was still nervous going in on Wednesday. But everything is great...baby measured 8 weeks 4 days, exactly on (new) schedule.  Heart rate was 178.
