2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

I had my appointment yesterday. Everything looks good. They did a scan, but I honestly think it looked like a blob more than anything. Lol.

The took blood, made me do a diabetes test since I have a family history, did a urine STI test, and a bedside scan.

It was really cool to see the LO. We didn't get to hear the heartbeat, but we saw it on the scan. It was around the 160s. I've attached the best photo, and it really doesn't look like much.

Thanks for the support ladies. I hope all is well.

Awwww sooo cute!!! Love looking at scans :).... Can't wait till the 1st for mine (it feels sooo long away).... I need to have diabetes test at 16weeks, because I developed it in my 1st pregnancy :coffee:
 
If you haven´t been vomiting then be careful what you wish for.

Lovely scans, so exciting. We have 10 days to wait until our first scan at 10+3.
 
Claire I'll be 12+6 :cry: it feels sooo far away, I seen my daughter at 7 weeks... But because I haven't had a miscarriage between her and this one, there wouldn't scan me earlier :(

But heard babies heartbeat today so it's all good :thumbup: I'm happy and satisfied lol
 
Well, so I just did something weird. I was super paranoid about baby, and can't pick up the heartbeat through my belly. So I stuck the probe on up in there by my cervix... :blush:

But I think I found the heartbeat! It sounds like a little train! We recorded the audio of the heartbeat from my 7w4d ultrasound, and it sounds the same only a bit faster!

Now, the disclaimer is that I have no idea WHAT all sounds I might be able to pick up in there. I found some of the same sounds I get through my belly, but then if I focused on one spot, I found this sound too. My doppler wouldn't give me a bpm, but it sounded nice and fast.
 
LOL Ginger, I just pictured hubby walking in on me trying to do that...
 
LOL

No problems getting it stuck! But that would've been an embarrassing call to the doctor if it had! :haha:
 
Oh gp you are funny x
love the scan pics everyone.
 
Ok, I had to try the GingerPanda method... didn't hear anything except my own heart.
This doppler stresses me out!
 
Dark star I wouldn't worry its so hit and miss this early.
 
I am trying not to, I know I have a retroverted uterus and I do have scar tissue along my pubic line, I had a laparotomy in late October for cysts and had a 10-inch C section style incision.

Its just hard for me with scans completely unavailable to me right now due to my remote location, after having bleeding for 3 weeks. Also I had a MMC in June and it is very hard for me to trust my body right now.
 
Dark_Star, I got a lot of my own heartbeat too. I had to get the probe in EXACTLY the right place. Even then, my doppler wasn't picking up a BPM. I hope you find it soon.
 
OMG ginger too funny!

I used to work as a volunteer ambo - saw a few things stuck but never a doppler probe! :haha:

God this thread moves so fast I can't keep up!!! So cool seeing all the scan pictures!

AFM - am pretty much immobile right now. I had severe SPD for the last few months of my pregnancy with DD - and guess whats back....already. IM ONLY 9 FRICKEN WEEKS!!!!! Everytime I walk my hips click/grate.

Apparantly I suck at being pregnant
