When are you all planning to get your first ultrasound?

Congrats druzymom and mrsjr96! Welcome to the February club! I will be getting my first ultrasound between 8 and 10 weeks. My ob usually does them at 8 but my losses were at 10,12, and 10 weeks so i try to get them to push it out closer to 10 weeks. I have two February babies already. One is the 2nd and the other is the 19th. This time our edd is the 8th.

Congrats to all! Hoping for a healthy pregnancy and babies for everyone!! Got my BFP on 13 DPO. Been testing every day and the lines are looking really good! First pregnancy, so no idea what to expect or what to do really. EDD is February 22nd! Got pregnant on my 2nd cycle trying...feeling very very fortunate! We knew we wanted to have a child and decided we would start trying late spring so I would hopefully only be super pregnant in the winter lol...didn't expect to get so lucky...which I know how lucky I am and I won't forget it!.

@Mrsjur96-hello again! how do you know HCG levels? is that something a lot of ppl do? This is your first pregnancy so just wondering why and how you are testing your levels? If that't not too personal?

Congrats kbro2689! February 22nd was my daughters due date! I was induced a few days early because my 14yo son was having a lit of medical issues and we were afraid we may have to end up going to the childrens hospital and I didn't want to have her in another city with a stranger for a doctor. Anyway, congrats on your first pregnancy! How exciting! Have you made your first doctor appointment yet?

@KBRO2689 hello again ?? Congrats on you yes it’s my first pregnancy aswell. My doctors here is Australia uses the HCG to confirm the pregnancy so after my Very faint positive I went to my doctor to confirm the pregnancy and had my hcg levels done at 14dpo and then I guess they just make sure they’re doubling as they’re suppose to. Is it not normal to get them done first pregnancy? This whole thing is so new to me so I’m not sure what’s normal and what isn’t.
Have you been to the doctors @KBRO2689?

I think in australia we don’t get a scan til approx 12 weeks but I’m hoping to get one a little earlier as I’m travelling to Bali between 10-13 weeks and would like to confirm everything and make sure myself and baby are healthy before being in another country in case anything happens to go wrong, has anyboby been in this situation and been able to ask for an early scan ?

I’m hesitantly joining. I have a faint positive and hoping this bean sticks, currently 4 days past due for AF. This one has come as a huge surprise as we have an almost 2 year old and a 2 1/2 month old.

Welcome logo817! How exciting baby number 3! How is it having a 2 year old with a newborn? My daughter will be 2 when this one is born and im very nervous. She is super clingy and doesn't like to share me. There is a pretty big gap between all our other kids so this is new territory for me!

She does pretty well. She loves her baby sister but she’s not always super gentle so we have to work on that. And she acted up a bit at first but has since tapered off. I make sure to find one on one time for us too. I am really blessed that the newborn is a great sleeper, she’s really just a good baby overall (the older was more difficult at this age).

Hey guys, has anyone had a dating scan yet ?

@senyeart4-thank you! Calling the doctors today to see who i can get set up with and what i am supposed to do.

@Mrsjr96-you were commenting on my 6DPO post, where I found out I was pregnant! They must have a different way of doing things there...some people I hear get blood tests and all that done right away...other just go in for a scan around 8 weeks? that's what i have heard anyway I'm not sure what to do so I am gonna call the office where I got for my yearly gyno exam and see if they can set me up with an appt with someone.

I feel so clueless! I just was like I will feel so lucky if I can get pregnant, that, that's all I was worried about. Now I am and I'm like oh--now what??So we'll see what happens when I call today. Hopefully it goes well. Would like a good start to this process.
