So, I have my first u/s in a little over an hour and I am freaking out!! My husband isn't able to go with me which isn't really helping me at all. With my first 2 pregnancies, it was the first u/s that showed problems. With the first, it showed twin sacs, but with no fetal development and the sacs weren't shaped right. The second one a week later confirmed miscarriage. With the second pregnancy, my first u/s confirmed an ectopic. I know that there's nothing that I can do about the results right now, because whatever they find they find, but it's just been so hard to get connected to this pregnancy because I don't want to get hurt again. I guess this is just kind of a little rant to get my negative feelings out, because negativity and stress don't really help with a pregnancy. Wish me luck that everything turns out alright!

, and I am sorry to hear that they have been so difficult for you in the past. I hope that you have your best u/s yet, today, and that you get to see your wonderful and healthy baby for the first time.
I will say a prayer for you as you are there, so know that someone is thinking about you and wishing you only good things. Please let us know how it turns out when you get finished.

:for youtoday. Let us know what happens!
: I would post a pic, but I don't know how to do it. Anybody know how to do it? I also got to see the heartbeat which I was really worried about. It was there!!! He did a count and it was 114, which he said is about right for 6 weeks. He said it should be more normal (~180) at the next visit. So yeah, nothing really to worry about!! He also said that once the heartbeat is visible, the risk for miscarriage goes from about 20-25% to 10-12% so that really helps with the stress. I even called my parents and told them, which was really difficult because they were at work and I asked them not to tell anyone. My dad choked up which was really sweet.
