Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Well ladies (and gentlemen), we finally went in for our first ultrasound. They wanted to wait until 8 weeks to see a viable heartbeat. My first two pregnancies, the babies stopped growing at 6 weeks after my first ultrasound so they waited this time until 8 weeks. The wait was excrucitating but worth it. The baby measured right on and the heart was beating away. Our next hurdle is in 2 more weeks for another ultrasound and then I will be sent to the OB portion of my current doctor who is a high risk infertility specialist. I just wanted to give an update everyone and hope to those trying after a resection. The dr did tell me that they will be watching to see if the placenta implanted on the operative site. If so they will be monitoring the baby's weight and growth starting at 24 weeks, every week. He said it has happened and the baby growth is just slightly slower. Also, I was informed that I will have a c-section no matter what. Thanks for reading my update! Cory 2 m/c's resected 9/03 8w1d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
