BG- great news!!! Very pleased for you...I was so nervous too, I felt sick
afm- we have good news too! there was a heartbeat...our little one was pulsing away...a little flickering blob on the screen. The heart rate was 108BPM and I dont know how that compares to where it should be (the guy doing the scan didnt say much on that point and said I should ask my Dr questions)....
and we also measured a bit smaller than we thought...we were 6 weeks 5 days, but our little possum was measuring about 6 weeks 1 day. I was a bit worried, but reading on here it sounds like thats OK?? I thought with IVF it would be pretty much spot on, but I guess there can be lots of variances.
So we are really pleased. Phew. I will see my OB on tuesday...hopefully we can have another scan in another couple of weeks before the 12 week one.
BG and Posssums- Have been BUSTING to get on the computer and check on you both. Am so so so so so very happy for you both that you saw your little ones today. What an amazing thing.
our nurse said that a mild difference in size is ok - they are just an estimate based on averages, so maybe we both have small bubbas!! and our baby had heartbeat of 99 which they said was fine as well! would be great if the sonographers were a little more forthcoming with information wouldn't it??
BG- thanks for sharing that info...and yes it sure would be great if they were a bit more informative...especially when there is a looong weekend between now and my Ob appt on tuesday arvo!
I am so glad you are all here to share the news with, gain support from and bounce these questions off! thanks everyone.
I am still just so relieved. It was a long nervewracking day!
my next FS appointment isn't for 10 days - and the nurse has been out of contact due to her MIL being in hospital - so it was a massive relief when she rang back before we even got out of the car park today!
Big yeeeeeehaaaaaa Possums and BG
Sounds great, anything over 80 BPM at this stage is good and yes can be variations with size as it is so small and hard to measure.
Just sooooo happy for you both its wonderful news, i have been out all day and dying to get back and see how you went!!!!!!
WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Woo Hoo BG and Possum....great news to start of the long weekend
