I know a lot of people on MDC think you shouldn't have an early ultrasound, but I am seriously showing and I'm going to have to tell people at work soon. I just can't keep hiding it. Before I tell them, I wanted to make sure I really was pregnant and everything looked good. I am between 5 weeks 1 day and 5 weeks 5 days today and everything looks great! Of course it is too early to measure the fetus, but the gestational sac is in my uterus and looks good. My left ovary looked good and she was unable to find my right ovary, but she said that happens sometimes (I'm overweight so that might have something to do with it). She only saw one gestational sac, but she said my fundus was very high. I guess that's why I'm showing so early! I've been pregnant once (DS), have no history of fibroids, and she made no mention of cysts. Does anyone know why I would have such a high fundal measurement?
ETA: My DS was born by C-section, if that could have something to do with the fundus placement.
Thanks!
