Day of Appointment: Wed, 8/19 (also my birthday )

Weeks+days at appointment: 11w3d

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes - I'm gong in for my NT scan.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I'm just hoping everything still looks good and that they'll give me a guess at the baby sex. We got guesses at the NT scan with our first two, and the guesses were both right.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

Appt Friday with my new OB. I fired my previous one because she sucked and was passing me off to her nurses more than she was taking care of me. I'll be 9 weeks and think I have an ultrasound if I remember correctly. I'm going to talk to him about the panorama test and setting up the NT scan. I'll update afterwards!

[paloslee]

My appointment is on Thursday

I will be 10weeks 4days

I just want baby to be safe and healthy.

I will be getting an ultrasound. Ready to hear a strong HB.

I will update on Thursday evening. Wishing you all a great week!

[daystardreams]

jtizzay Congrats s on a good appointment!

Day of Appointment: 8/17 (today!)

Week+days: 8w1d

Ultrasound? Yes! My third in three weeks.

What are you thinking? I'm a nervous wreck. This is it. We'll know today one way or the other. Part of me just wants to keep not knowing, living in a fantasy everything just has to be ok land because I feel we've got a pretty 50/50 chance of being heartbroken today. It's hard but it must be done. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

UPDATE: coming around 5 tonight probably

[MadApple]

daystardreams, hugs for you. I hope you get good news.

[DanaScullyX]

Good luck to everyone this week!

Big hugs for you, daystardreams. I'm looking forward to a great update.

Day of Appointment: Friday

Weeks+days at appointment: 10w3d

Will you have an ultrasound? No which makes me nervous but I've had 3.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I hope she uses the doppler and that all looks good. I also think we'll do my blood draw for genetic testing. I'm nervous.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

[readinglove]

Day of Appointment: Thursday morning

Weeks+days at appointment: 9+6

Will you have an ultrasound? Nope. This is just the standard intake appointment. I'm anticipating blood draw, family history questions, and that sort of thing.

Heading in, what are you thinking? Dear veins, please cooperate!! This should be a pretty easy appointment otherwise.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

Day of Appointment: Today!!!

Weeks+days at appointment: 10w6d

Will you have an ultrasound? I did!

Heading in, what are you thinking? Please just let baby be okay in there! Also, please give me relief for these horrific headaches I've been having.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went! It went great!! Baby looked so good and was kicking and swimming around in there! It even waved at us for our sono picture!!! Look at baby Pugs just waving hullo!!!:




My due date was changed to the 7th, it was the 10th. We got to hear baby's little heartbeat and that was so freaking cool! And then she took a gallon of my blood. Lol. Next appointment in September.

For my headaches she suggested baby aspirin and 500mg of magnesium a day as a preventative measure. Anyoone else had that suggested?

[sunshineshades]

@pugsandwine I don't know about headaches but I take baby aspirin every day as a preventative measure for recurrent miscarriage. So it is safe if you were concerned on that part.

[halfahippy]

I took 500mg of magnesium for headaches and horrific migraines last pregnancy. It helped so much! I went from barely being able to function and missing tons of work because I couldn't drive to almost no headaches at all and the ones I got could be controlled with Tylenol and maybe a half a soda.

[Deleted]

OHhhh that's super encouraging. Thanks sunshineshades & halfahippy!!!

We're due date twinsies again! So exciting

8/17, yesterday

9 w 3 d

The appt was an ultrasound only. The OB had decided she wanted one to check dates last week, but they couldn't get me in until yesterday. One little bean, 166 heartbeat Measure 10 weeks, so a few days ahead. I think they will leave my EDD the same but will know for sure in a couple weeks.

I was nervous. No reason to think anything is wrong, but such a moment of anticipation waiting for the little bean to show up on the screen.

And now to be a big AW

Magnesium is good for a whole host of things! I take it regularly. It helps you sleep better, helps with irregularity, and leg cramps (later on). I believe it's also good for the muscles in your uterus so they'll contract more efficiently later on, so there's that too.

Day of Appointment: Today! (Aug 18th)

Weeks+days at appointment: 11 weeks.

Will you have an ultrasound? Hmm...maybe? I think LO is too small to track via doppler so IIRC, they did one at 11 weeks when I was pregnant with DS.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I just want to get the results back from my Panorama test!

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

[blackbird]

Can't wait for an update sdchick! Sending good appt vibes your way!!

Day of appointment: tomorrow 8/18

I will be 11w5d

Not sure if I'm having an ultrasound.

I'm feeling a little lost going from the RE to the OB. Last time I met a midwife and this time an OB.

I also need blood drawn and I've been putting it off because of dizziness. So anxious about fainting.

Do the blood draw laying down. Helps me so much

[katespade]

Day of Appointment: Originally scheduled for 8/20, but had an urgent appt yesterday

Weeks+days at appointment: 8w3d

Will you have an ultrasound? I did have one, and baby is looking great!

Heading in, what are you thinking? I was so sick, all I was thinking was "please dont throw up in the car. please dont throw up in the waiting room. please dont throw up on the medical student."

[zombiesquad]

Day of Appointment: Yesterday

Weeks+days at appointment: 11+6

Will you have an ultrasound? No.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I was just hoping to hear the little zombie's heartbeat on the doppler.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went! Heard a strong heartbeat. Position is still low, but this being my second, it's getting harder to disquise my bump. Had my blood drawn for my Verifi test and was adamant about not finding out the sex. Results in two weeks. Scheduled a few more appointments through November. Other than that, it was a pretty uneventful appointment.

[kendraj426]

Day of Appointment: This afternoon

Weeks+days at appointment: 11+5

Will you have an ultrasound? Yes.

Heading in, what are you thinking? I've had a fever on and off since Friday morning (this highest it got was 102 on Fri & Sat), which my doctor wasn't able to confidently diagnose this morning and took a ton of blood to test for various things. I know you aren't supposed to go in saunas or anything cause it could raise your body temp and that's bad. So, I'm just worried that I've done irreparable damage to my baby. I'm so scared to go to this appointment, but really want to just get it over with.

ETA: And then when I told my H everything that the doc said this morning, his response was, 'we can always try again'. Cause that's what I want to hear. I totally cried when I got off the phone with him.

*Update Us! Let us know how it went!

Update: I saw an OB instead of my MW (guess she was OOT and forget to tell anyone?) so they did a surprise u/s! Only one baby but he/she kept frustrating the OB by peering up at the wand rather than moving around for her to get a full body shot. So now we have a super creepy photo of baby's face! And a strong HB of 170

My measurements were slightly behind (closer to when I think I ovulated) but they're refusing to change the DD. So the 7th it is.

DH is determined that this is a girl (much higher HB than DS at this time, super sickness on my part) and he's already trying to figure out a middle name. Silly man.
