HB ?

Sorry ladies, I am full of questions and so greatful that you are all sooooo patient!

I am feeling a little better and more hopeful but my question is, I think that I will be 6w 2d on the day of the ultrasound on Jan 3, give or take 2 days either way. I am also going for dating purposes... How possible to do think it will be to see a hb?

I am sure that if we don't see one I will go back in 5-7 days but I have read so many different things. I've read 22 days after conception (not sure how much I believe that) 5w, 6w... I would love to see it for reassurance but will have to be patient if I don't. I know you all get it... thanks for being wonderful! ~Amy

I wouldn't count on being able to see a HB yet, that way, if you do, it's a nice surprise but you go in knowing that you're still early to be assured of seeing it. I had an u/s at 6W and they couldn't see it, at 6W5D they said I looked more like 6W1D and the HB was 130 which indicated it had just started beating a few days earlier. So, if you see it, that's wonderful, but if you don't, don't worry.

I'm hoping you see it though, it would be such a relief!!

GL!

Hello there!
I'm glad you are feeling better!
I had my first u/s at 6w 5d and we saw a h/b!! (I was feeling some pelvic pain and although I was almost sure everyhthing was OK...where are PAL and always sacred in some ways)
I hope you can see a h/b! And if you don't try to stay calm...remember every pregnancy is different!

if you are 6w 2d you should be able to see it but not necessarily! sometimes it takes a little longer to show, what you really need to do is just relax and enjoy you're pg!!! You worry way too much about everything! The doc will let you know what is normal and what is not, for right now I wouldn't worry too much about tomorrow just be excited you get to possibly see your bean for the first time! And if your dating is off you will see it next time!

Hi Amy!



Seriously sweetie, no need to apologize. I am worrying about EVERYTHING myself too! I am so with ya! I can tell you that my last pg I was able to see and hear the heartbeat at 6 wks and 1 day. However it wasnt beating very fast. I would say depending on when you actually conceived it could be a close call as to whether you will see one or not. I think it is possible, but I would plan on not being able to see it. Most Dr's do an early u/s just to try to check viabilty/position/and get a more accurate date. If you arent able to see a hb they will probably have you back for another u/s a little later. I wouldnt read into the items you have read too much because everyone is so different. Most things you will read are going off of averages or specific studies which may have no bearing on how your body and baby grow and react....


Best of luck to you! Please let us know how it goes tomorrow!
