First Ultrasounds!

My first ultrasound is scheduled for Tuesday March 15th. I will be exactly 7 weeks. We are praying for a heartbeat. It's so nerve-racking after suffering a miscarriage but we need to stay positive!

When is your first ultrasound?

Also, please be sure to post updates once you have your first ultrasound = )

I finally had my first ultrasound today!  I was in there so long that I thought that something may have been wrong with the baby.  I'm very thankful that everything turn out to be great.  Even though I only 13weeks, we were however able to see a little Boy in the u/s.  My next u/s will be in about 6 to 8 weeks when everything is confirmed.  He just so happen to turn the right way and there it was.  I don't know what I am more happy about, the fact that it's going to be a boy or the fact that there's only one baby in the tummy.  I uploaded my u/s onto picture library.  I might change it to my profile pic, who knows yet.

I go for my 11wk ultrasound on the 4th, with bloods taken the day before for Ds. Am nervous, but very hopeful everything will be fine.

I finally got my first app. for an ultrasound for May 13.  I will be 13weeks and 2 days then.  You would think that because I work in a hospital that I would be able to get my appointments.  Sometimes I feel they treat the employees worse than regular patients.  But I do love my doctor though.  She made sure that I got the app. I needed.  She wants to know if I will be having a single or multiples, because of the way I am already starting to show.  Even though I have been losing weight, she said that the more weight I lose, the more I am showing.  I wasn't the smallest person to begin with but I never looked like I weighed as much as I do either.  I think that's why she is pushing for this u/a.  As I had explained to her, the only reason why I have been keeping track of my periods was because of the lack of a period from September 27th 2010 to December 1st 2010 with negative hcg.  Once I told her that, I think she understood a lot better.  I hope that this ultrasound goes well.

Just had my first ultrasound today and we were shocked and totally thrilled to find out that I'm pregnant with TWINS!! They both looked perfect with their little hearts flickering! One measured 6 wks 2 days, with a heart rate of 123 and the other measured 6 wks 1 day with a heart rate of 124. I am so incredibly thankful and I feel so blessed! I will get to have weekly ultrasounds until 10 weeks, when I will be transferred to the regular OB. Not sure how often I'll have them after that. The RE gave me a new due date of 11/11/11 :)

I went for my ultrasoound on March 24th and found out I was 6weeks and 4 days. Im 19 years old and this was completely unplanned, but definatly loved ! Im not sure what to watch for in my appointments. I go next week to get my blood drawn, cultures, and a pap smeer...are these things normal? I got to hear the heart beat which was very strong, but my doctor never told me exactly what it was.. I guess i am just nervous and worried about everything...any advice?

How was the U/S ladies?! :)
Could you hear the heart beat?

We have been thinking about getting a 3D/4D U/S. Our family leaves abroad and it would be a nice way for them to connect with the our baby. Have you guys ever got this U/S or know someone who did?
