Feels weird to be the first one posting here. Because I hadn’t had a cycle yet since our last baby, we had our dating scan today. 7+1 due September 2nd! Heart rate was 142 bpm (I believe). I don’t know why it’s sideways and sorry about the glare, they gave us a CD so I took a picture.

Had my 1st prenatal visit and ultrasound. The doctor measured the baby at 7w1d which is close to what I had predicted with my ovulation- so probably due somewhere around 9/1-9/3. The heartbeat sounded good- 143 bpm I think. I'm going to have another US to confirm the date, and another US for the NT test.

@chasingroygbiv we probably have the same due date!

Touch and go with twins. A measured two days ahead of B, which was on track. We did fertility treatments and knew this was a possibility. I’m also a twin. I have to go back Wednesday because they couldn’t see yolk sacs yet, possibly because my bladder was too full and the fact that I have a 77mm cyst competing for space.

notagoodpatient · January 2020

Twins! Congratulations! Hope you see those yolk sacs Wednesday!!

FTM question: are you supposed to hold for TVUS, in order to have a fuller bladder? Or does it matter?

mflowers929 · January 2020

@notagoodpatient for a transvaginal they have you empty your bladder first

NYTino24 · January 2020

@notagoodpatient I’m seeing an RE and they never make me empty my bladder, but I’m usually seen very early in the morning (like 6:30-7:30). I have been super bloated and peeing constantly though, so she asked me to empty it and it was still too full.

Usually the OB does urine samples for various reasons before an US

katbest88 · January 2020

Due on Labor Day, because apparently even my kid digs a theme party.

macheno · January 2020

@NYTino24 Twins! How exciting! Praying for a good US on Wednesday.

notagoodpatient · January 2020

First ultrasound today, I think I’m at 5+4. Super quick visit with a partner of my RE who I hadn’t met previously. She says everything looked appropriate for how far along I am. I think I was expecting more, but I’m elated! Gestational sac and yolk sac. She wants me to come back in 2 weeks (it’s going to feel like 2 years) and she says by the then we should be able to hear the heartbeat. So now I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed until 2/5.

annieco13 · January 2020

I had an early viability us today and there is our baby!! 6 weeks 6 days (3 days behind based on lmp) we saw the heartbeat flickering and it is 132.

almiller86 · January 2020

Had an early US to confirm pregnancy on Wednesday. Measuring on time at 6 weeks 2 days. All looks great and we saw the heartbeat!

mflowers929 · January 2020

I gots a baby in me! Everything looks good for now, measuring on track and we saw the heartbeat. I'm feeling better but I'm not going to say we're out of the woods yet since both of my MMCs were after a good ultrasound. We have a repeat ultrasound in a week and a half

cnf2013 · January 2020

Went in for a viabilyscan at the last minute today since I've had a previous MC. Heartbeat was 147 and baby was measuring exactly to the day at 7+3!

ssbl · January 2020

@NYTino24 Thinking of you--How did it go on Wednesday?

NYTino24 · January 2020

@ssbl Only one yolk sac between the twins on Wednesday and I started spotting on Thursday morning, so I went in for ultrasound 4 and there were 3 yolk sacs. TRIPLETS! I’ve been trying to get in here to update you guys, but the site is giving me so many issues! We go back Monday (6 weeks) to see if we can see fetal poles or heartbeats.

CarbAddict · January 2020

@NYTino24 Wow! That's crazy, how are you absorbing the news? Sending good thoughts for Monday.

NYTino24 · January 2020

@CarbAddict totally in shock. We knew I had two follicles for IUI, but our success rate in 13 months was low and *TW* I’ve had 3 miscarriages plus 3 failed IUIs and had put in for IVF approval. It’s still early so who knows what will happen.

ssbl · January 2020

@NYTino24 WOW! Sending all the good vibes your way!

dontcallmeshirley1 · January 2020

@NYTino24 Wow! Triplets! I would have fainted. Congratulations!

There wasn't a whole lot to see at our u/s, but it was fun, especially for DH (it's his first!) The embryo was hiding behind the yolk sac so the tech couldn't get an exact measurement of the length or of the heart rate, but we could see it fluttering away! (6w2d) We have a follow up in 2 weeks to get a more exact measurement.

NYTino24 · January 2020

Triplet A - HB 108, B - hard to see still (confirmed A and B are likely identical), Triplet C - HB 110; A and B are pictured

jennifer_louise · January 2020

@NYTino24 whattttt?

This must be surreal for you!! (I mean, it's surreal for ME and I'm not even involved lol). How are you feeling??

NYTino24 · January 2020

@jennifer_louise It’s crazy to be pregnant with 3 at once especially since we lost 3... still in that PGAL state of wondering what will happen. This was my fifth ultrasound and the last 3 they are questioning whether Baby B will make it. We should know more next Wednesday.

swizzlemalarkey · January 2020

@NYTino24 omg triplets! Hoping for healthy babies and you of course!!

macheno · January 2020

@NYTino24 to go from thinking it was twins to finding out it's triplets!?! So exciting! Hoping the initial shock wears off so you can enjoy this time.

31magnolia · January 2020

@NYTino24 - I don't even know what to say. That's crazy!! I seriously would have passed out had I seen that on the ultrasound. LOL.

Here's my pic. Ignore that it says 6w3d. The RE still hasn't updated it. They were going by my LMP and not my ovulation date. The baby is at 7w2d and that's what it measured! HB = 147.Excuse the bad pic.

beaandthebabes · January 2020

Keeping @NYTino24 and baby B in my thoughts! Triplets! Oh My!

NYTino24 · January 2020

Thanks @beaandthebabes! HCG 54,329 at 6 weeks. Nuts!!

starlynn91 · January 2020

Went in today, measuring at 7w1d, so 1 day off from my LMP. Got to see and hear a strong heartbeat. US is super fuzzy, but it’s in there!!!

robinj716 · January 2020

Congrats on the triplets! @NYTino24

tyrion_ · January 2020

Oh my word, @NYTino24!! Congratulations!! Sending you and your womb crew all the positive thoughts and love!!!

Edit: too excited for correct spelling

linz36 · January 2020

@NYTino24 congratulations!!!!

notagoodpatient · January 2020

@NYTino24 keeping you all all THREE babies in my thoughts! Such an emotional rollercoaster. I hope you can see a HB for triplet B at your next ultrasound!

macheno · January 2020

Had my official dating US this morning. Baby looked great and was wiggling. HB was over 160 and they measured it at 9w1d which is 1 day past what I had calculated from my ovulation.

emohay1988 · January 2020

Had an early scare with some bleeding, so was happy to see my little peanut is rocking a strong heartbeat and all is looking healthy. 7 weeks 5 days ❤️

beaandthebabes · January 2020

Look at all of these little beans!

ssbl · January 2020

So happy I got to see the little one’s heartbeat!

NYTino24 · January 2020

6w4d... *TW* spotting today but fighters are still fighting! 3 nice heartbeats and a rhogam shot to the butt. Back on Wednesday

notagoodpatient · January 2020

@NYTino24 💓💓💓!
