Guest guest Posted January 16, 2000 Report Share Posted January 16, 2000 It is to early to hear it, but they can see it. You will be able to see the baby, but with no detail. They can see placement, make sure there is only one, stuff like that. Remember, I had mine at 7 weeks and that was when they found 2 babies. They don't look like a whole lot, but it is nice to see. You will be able to see the heart beating on the monitor. donna Ultasound > > >I have my first ultrasound scheduled on Monday and I am a little confused as to what they are looking for.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 , I am kinda under the impression that it depends on insurance coverage as to how often a doctor (most of them) will or an ultrasound. At my 2nd visit I was informed that my insurance was very liberal with prenatal visits. I also thought it was odd that I would have an ultrasound so early. But thats okay... Made me realize just how fortunate I am to see that little tiny heart beating!! ;o) How far along are you now? How much longer do you have to wait? I am sure you will be even more excited I am!!!!!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 i am 9 weeks. they can use an ultrasound for due date too if you arent sure of when things happened. i have a hmo too and they are kinda tight. dont take my jealousies personal....honest. somedays i still wonder if i really am pregnant because at this stage you dont look or feel like you are. they are gonna try to hear the heartbeat at my next appt which will make it more real for me. i have waited soo long for this and get so excited for all of us. i did finally break down and start baby shopping. i am far enough along that i feel confident that things will be ok. i was on a couple web sites and they told me that i am going to have a boy and a couple weeks ago there was talk here about how to tell if you are going to have a boy or girl and according to that i am going to have a boy. i went out and got a boy outfit. i will be very relieved when i have an ultrasound and see that there is just 1 in there. i wouldnt mind twins but i dont really want that suprise on the delivery table. i cant wait!!!! julie Re: Ultasound , I am kinda under the impression that it depends on insurance coverage as to how often a doctor (most of them) will or an ultrasound.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 Well I am absolutely positive of my conception day and they moved my due date back to the 9th instead of the 1st. So I am confused as to how they calculate. I know the exact date of conception and everything I have read and from what the nurse said at my last visit the due date is Sept 1st. So how can the ultrasound say that its different? I plan on asking my dr about it at our next visit on the 26th. We have gone baby shopping, but I am too chicken to buy anything yet. Silly I know. lol Hugs, Stacey Ultasound I have my first ultrasound scheduled on Monday and I am a little confused as to what they are looking for. Isn't it too early to actually hear the heartbeat?

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 i know my conception date too. they still go from my last period and that is off a little bit. i dont understand either but i know that this little baby will arrive when it is darn good and ready too....no matter when they tell it to. we are real close in due dates. i say i will have this baby around sept 4-7 and they say the 27th of august. must have been a good month. it is exciting shopping. i couldnt stand it anymore. julie Re: Ultasound Well I am absolutely positive of my conception day and they moved my due date back to the 9th instead of the 1st.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 I know for a fact that I conceived on Dec 25th between 6-8am in the morning. I'm due Sept 16th. You need to count 266 days from the day you conceived and that's your real due date, not the one the doctor gives you.
