Most pregnant women with my insurance only get to have 3 ultrasounds - one at 8 weeks, 20 weeks, and 36 weeks. We are lucky that we were able to have an extra one. Our fertility specialist did an ultrasound at 7 weeks to make sure that everything looked normal, before releasing us back to the OB. Once we were released to the OB, they also wanted to do an ultrasound at 9 weeks to make sure everything was OK. Fine with us! Take as many pictures of This Baby as you'd like!
9/29/08 - 7 week ultrasound - Heart rate 153 BPM. We could hardly tell what we were looking at, but that doctor could!
Two weeks later - 10/14-08 - 9 weeks. Heart rate was 174 BPM! That kiddo was flip flopping all over the place! The growth in only 2 weeks was amazing to see!
Our next ultrasound should be scheduled for the week over Christmas. That is the biggie and we will be able to find out what we are having - unless we can convince the NP to pull in that machine at our appointment today. Wish us luck!
