Had a surprise ultrasound today while I waited for the Phlebotomist and got to see little one moving all around😭 and I got to hear the heartbeat for the very first time! It was amazing and at 166 bpm. I’m so in love! 10w tomorrow.

I had my dating ultrasound today! The baby's heart beat was strong at 158 bpm:). My due date was changed from 11/27 (based off of LMP) to 12/7! I guess I am no longer officially a November Mama, but since my last two babies arrived 2 1/2 -3 1/2 weeks early I am reluctant to switch boards. My next appointment is May 27th and that will be for the Nuchal Translucency Ultrasound and first OBGYN appointment.
1st trimester ultrasound was this morning and it seems like everything looked good! I was able to Facetime my fiancé which was nice and the technician asked him several time if he had questions so that was nice. We saw a lot of cool stuff, baby was wiggling a lot, then went to sleep, then wiggled some more, we saw the brain hemispheres, the blood circulating, he swallowed. Nuchal fold was measuring good and there was a nasal bone. Heart was beating at 156 BPM! Oh and looks like it's a boy 💙 ! 75% chance that the technician is right so we'll confirm at the 2nd trimester ultrasound. Still measuring 3 days ahead but my doctor last month was keeping my due date in early November.
NT scan went well today, such a relief! All is good. 12 weeks, 1 day. EDD November 4. Heart rate 145 bpm. 😊
The US tech was outstanding, which made the experience less stressful. She kept me informed throughout, giving positive reassurance when going over the measurements. Baby was pretty still at first, but started moving all over the place as she was nudging to try and get some more action shots, and she let me take video and photo’s to share with my fiancé, so that was nice too!
Had my first US on Monday , and they could only find one ! So fingers crossed it stays that way 168 was the HR so I think it’s safe to say I have a healthy sticky baby again. Very relieved
Had our NIPT and NT done yesterday. Look at that itty bitty profile, so cute! Downside, she had to press REALLY hard on my belly thanks to my retroverted uterus. And I’ve had some spotting since last night. My friend is an OB/GYN nurse and said it’s normal, but geesh!
Had some VERY faint spotting last night so popped in for a quick looksie today. Baby was moving all over the place flipping around and moving their little hands and feet. He/She put on quite a show and MH was in awe. HR was measured at 162bmp, so everything does look good. We didn't get a pic at this one, but will get one at our regular appt next Friday.
@jaclyn0405 So glad you had a god scan! Head's up to remove or block out your identifying information on your photo.

Finally had my first ultrasound today!! The technician got a super cute profile shot of baby!! She also said baby was wiggling all over the place. Heart beat was good at 161. I'm 11 weeks today and it was such a relief to finally have an ultrasound and see that everything was ok!
a week earlier than scheduled but RLP had me in tears this morning so they took me in to check me out. I have a pretty big cyst that’s leaking fluid so that’s the source of pain but otherwise all good. Healthy baby with HB of 167. We did blood work today so I’ll find out what we’re having in 7-10 days 😁
9 week appointment went good today! Got to see the babys heart beating and it was pretty active during the ultrasound! Wish the pictures would have been a bit better since hubby couldnt be there for the scan. Baby was measuring 9w1d (my calc was 9 weeks) so since it was so close they are keeping the November 30 due date. Asked about a VBAC. Doctor seems convinced I will be unable to since my last pregnancy I was induced and never dilated past 3cm. Thinks I will not dilate this time, but says we will play it by ear. Also have my first 24hr urinalysis to take to get a baseline of numbers since I had preeclampsia last pregnancy. Fun stuff. Hope everyone is having a good monday!
Had our first appointment today and looks like I was a week behind on my calculations so I’m 9 weeks tomorrow and my due date is Dec. 3 instead of Nov. 28. Heartbeat was 178 and everything looked good! I’m still in shock. I’m hoping to hang out on this board if you guys will have me!
Had my first ultrasound today!!! Little babe was so cute in there but they didn’t print me any pictures and I was so distracted with FaceTiming MH and DD so they could see and then hanging up with them that by the time I thought to ask the doctor already pulled that wand out and I got. Distracted talking to her about how she’s changing my due date that it felt like it was too late to ask for a photo and I didn’t want to be a pain in the ass.... so, does anyone know how those photos work? Are they able to print them after the fact or do they have to do it like, live, while their looking? I feel dumb about the whole thing - my mom said I could probably call and just request they print a photo.
Anywho, they said I’m 11w rather than 10w2d like I thought because they strictly go off LMP rather than ovulation like I was using. 🤷🏽♀️ Heartbeat was strong at 173 bpm. 🥰

I heard slower heart rate means boy. I'm curious if she is right.
They sent me a pic through the patient portal! I was just a tad disappointed still because the baby looked so much more like a real baby from other angles but of course they only took a pic from the angle doctor measured baby at! Lol.
@bundleofjoy4iluvu I heard that too but at 12w5d 159 BPM is quite average from what I read and it was 175 at 8w3d so I thought girl at the time! I also heard that left and front placenta means girl and that's what I have yet the technician says boy! It's fun to guess though! I like the slight doubt we have for a couple more weeks.
Pics from this morning's scan, below. Baby is measuring 13w+5, but we're keeping my due date. Baby was moving around so much; he's an active little guy already. We were able to see his entire face, it was amazing! Heart rate was perfect at 155bpm and everything is progressing nicely. Next appointment is in 4 weeks and then the anatomy scan 2-weeks after.
11+2 had some spotting for two days last week so I was surprised with a US today, thank goodness because I was so worried!! I didn’t get the HB but she said it was great and everything looked good. I am scheduled for my NIPT Monday and then my OB 4 weeks from today! Baby boy had his legs wide open lol

Had an ultrasound a few days ago. Baby looked great and was measuring right on track! Heartbeat was 154 or 158. I was able to take a video to show DH and caught the little nugget bouncing around in there. It's the coolest video. I've watched it about a thousand times. This finally feels real 🥰
Just had another ultrasound! Baby looks good and HB was 152 ❤ he/she turned facing the wand and the pictures look like a little alien, lol!! Also, she kind of zoomed in between the legs (not pictured) and it definitely looked like a girl to me... but we will find out for sure in a few days with NIPT results.
Had another u had another u/s after continued spotting (it lasted about a week) and got to see the HB was 180! Also had my NIPT bloodwork last week so anxiously awaiting the gender. We’ll know by 11 weeks what we’re having but I have the strongest feeling it’s a girl. I’ve had two girls previously and never felt this strongly it was a girl!!
Finally had my first ultrasound today! Baby is measuring a week behind my original EDD. So instead of the 7th they are saying the 14th of Nov. baby looks great and that’s all that matters
Due Date is still 11/12, but I measured at 11/10 which is a pretty big jump from last time when I measured at 11/17. I’m glad we are measuring earlier though than later! I was told my synchronic bleed has resolved itself. Yay!! Heart Rate was 146.
Baby was jumping around it was so cute..
I asked if I could FaceTime or record it for my Husband, but was told no 😢. I’m thinking all this covid nonsense is going to lead to stronger mommy and baby bonding. I hate that Daddy’s are missing out.
I will be 13 weeks tomorrow. I had my ultrasound. Everything looks good. I learned my kidney is located on my back right and not my front right. He said nothing to be concerned about.
Had my second u/s for NIPT on 5/5 at 12W6D. Elf is measuring big still at about 13+4 but not changing the date still. Nuchal translucency looked good, so based on Scans no concerns; waiting for blood draw results. LOVED this u/s, getting to see real human features, movement, everything! So sad DH couldn’t be with me. The Dr offered to let me FT but DH was working. Unfortunately the tech didn’t let me record. Feeling much more real now that Elf actually looks like a human!

Got to see my nugget today and Hubby got to come in with me!!! We heard it’s beautiful little heart beat and got to see it wiggling around. He was so giggly and excited — much more different than seeing just still photos. This was for the NT Screening Sono — Dr said we looked perfectly average! I still opted to do all of the other available screening blood tests as well — eager to learn as much about this little bean as possible! In 7-10 days we’ll have the chance to know the gender! Still deciding if we want to be surprised and do a gender reveal, or know ahead, and throw the gender reveal for all of our friends and family.
We got to see our sweet little one today! We also learned that this little blessing is a BOY! 🥰💜🥰 He was waving his little hand and looked like he was chewing bubble gum. 😂 So cute! We are soooo thankful and sooooo excited! 💜🥰💜
Had my NIPT ultrasound done today along with blood work. I was told I wouldn't get any results back until after results come back from the second draw (that apparently I can't have done until 16 weeks🤔) . So tag on two more weeks after that to get results back and I will be 18 weeks before. I know the gender (not that it's all about that but still)!!!!!!
Had my 12 week scan this week and dr. said everything looked good. So relieved, after a mmc in January at 14 weeks I'm so worried all the time. Lil bub was literally jumping and bouncing all around. It was WILD.
the twins are looking wonderful! Measuring the same just one is tucked up behind other baby. Both were bouncing around waving their arms 😍

@potofgolden when did you find out about your synchronic bleed? I had my first ultrasound yesterday (12 weeks, 5 days) and my midwife said there’s a little spot of blood just around the edge of the placenta. She said if I’m not having any bleeding (which I’m not) then it’s probably an incidental finding and will disappear by my next scan at 20 weeks. Is this similar to your situation? I’m so nervous now 😔
