Today!

8w 3d

No ultrasound.

Everything was great! Pap, cervix is closed up tight. Peed in a cup. Had four tubes of blood drawn. Paid a bunch of money :-P

I was not expecting an ultrasound for another month. However, she wants to do one earlier because I was having shorter cycles. So we get to see our little bean next Monday!!

Weeks+days at appointment:
10w6d


Will you have an ultrasound?
No


Heading in, what are you thinking? Anxious to hear the heartbeat on the Doppler. I believe I will also have the blood draw for the Verifi test. I'm anxious to confirm the baby is healthy and excited to find out the sex so soon.

Day of Appointment: Today!

Weeks+days at appointment: 8w4d

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I'm excited it's finally here. I feel like I've been waiting forever! I'm nervous too and just hope everything is on track.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

[sdchick]

My "appointment" yesterday wasn't a routine prenatal checkup. I had my Panorama test since I'm AMA. They also can determine the sex with that test as well so as soon as I get results I'll update.

[KK_8721]

Thursday! I'll be 8 weeks and get an ultrasound. If all looks well I'll be graduating from my RE and released to my OB!

[michelleca]

I didn't see this yet, so let's get this week going!

Day of Appointment: Wednesday (12th)

Weeks+days at appointment: 7 weeks

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes!

Heading in, what are you thinking? Just hoping to see a heart beat!

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

[daystardreams]

Hey guys! Good luck for those going in today and the rest of week too!

Day of Appointment: Yesterday

Weeks+days at appointment: 7w1d

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes

Heading in, what are you thinking? Heading in I was all the negative. I cried three times before the appointment.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

Baby has a heartbeat but only of 92 bpm. Doctor says I'm dehydrated, there was blood around the gestational sac and I have a gigantic cyst on my right ovary. Not the best news but I'm trying to be positive.

[blackbird]

Day of Appointment: Yesterday!

Weeks+days at appointment: (they changed it) 8w6d

Will you have an ultrasound? Sure did!

Heading in, what are you thinking? I was a freaking mess. This is the appt last time that we learned of our MMC. And there was a fire very close to our ranch so H had to come home & wasn't able to go with me, which was hard. I would have been even more stressed though if he had come & thinking about the safety of all our animals.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went! Perfect! Baby measured 8w6d which is one day off of my charting dates so they finally agreed to change it and not use LMP. If anyone remembers, my problem last week about my Dr saying my hcg was too high and wanting to do repeat b/w. Well we discussed that, and he said his concern was potentially a partial molar pg so he just wanted to be extra cautious. But he said he saw no other signs that indicated that & he should be by this point if that was the cause. He more likely suspects it was a case of a vanishing twin bc of the size of the yolk sac. Anyway I did another blood draw after my appt.



ETA: The nurse called me back today and said my hcg came back & the Dr thinks it's still "too high" so I'm supposed to do ANOTHER draw in 1-2 weeks. ugh I'm annoyed...I'd much rather do another u/s & that seems like more valid info at this point anyways

Day of Appointment: tomorrow, August 12

Weeks+days at appointment: 9w5d

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes

Heading in, what are you thinking? Ultrasounds give me anxiety so my heart is already pounding at the thought. I had a great ultrasound 2 weeks ago but I'm still nervous.

[DanaScullyX]

Hugs, daystardreams! I know it's hard, but stay positive and hydrated so that baby sticks and grows!!

[SheilaTheTank]

The one on Wednesday is my normal 12 week appointment at my Dr's, and the one on Thursday is my NT scan at the hospital. It just happened that they could give me appointments back to back.

Appointment went great! Baby fox was moving around and looks like a baby, not a blob. We could make out the head and body and limbs. So cool. Still had a strong heartbeat and got to hear it for the first time today!

Isn't crazy how quickly they change?!? My scans were 11 days apart, and baby went from just a blob to actually looking human lol

Congrats on a great appt!!

Day of Appointment: It was this morning

Weeks+days at appointment: 7+2

Will you have an ultrasound? I did!!

Heading in, what are you thinking? I was so so so worried due to spotting, slightly slow rising betas and a first ultrasound that didn't show a fetal pole

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

IT WENT GREAT! We got to see our little bean measuring 7w with a HB of 136. You guys, how crazy is it that there is a living thing in there? With a heartbeat?! Haha, I know I'm slightly behind on this given my end of month due date but still! Nuts! Oh here is our LO. DH thinks he/she looks like a mouse. I'll go with that nickname

Day of Appointment: Today

Weeks+days at appointment: 10+1

Will you have an ultrasound? No, I had one done 2 weeks ago.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I just want to hear the heartbeat! I've seen it, but there's nothing like hearing it for the first time.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went! Heard the heartbeat! And she let DS "help" too, which he was so proud off. I'm very impressed with how my OB lights up when she talks to DS. I'm starting to like her (she's new, my OB that delivered DS just retired)
