First prenatal visit

I had my first prenatal visit today. I got to see the little heart beat and the doctor was digging pretty hard because she thought she saw more than one but couldn't get a good angle. I guess we'll wait and see! They said it's measuring about 8w3d. I go back next month for another ultrasound!
Try #1 BFP at 9DPO!

    congrats on hearing the heartbeat! I would be so anxious having to wait a month to know for sure if there's MORE than one in there!

    Congrats, it must have been beautiful to hear the heart beat!

    I am also curious, was it a vaginal or abdominal ultrasound?

    Does the vaginal ultrasound have a harder time seeing everything?

    Vaginal Us is the easier of the two to see in your uterous. Did you take fertility drugs?

    They usually don't do an abdominal ultrasound that early since you can't see anything that way...

    From what I understand, usually the vaginal picks up more because of it being the absolute closest proximity to the uterus. I was just curious because I am going to have an abdominal ultrasound next week at 8 weeks 4 days and have been wondering how much we'll be able to see that way. Glad they're getting you in again for another scan, but dang it's gotta be a LONNNNG wait for you. Congrats on your bundle(s) of joy!
