Who agrees that is SO hard to wait between sonograms?

Im starting my 11th week and I feel better now

I dont fall asleep at 9 pm anymore. I can actually stay up and watch my shows! I actually have had insomnia for the past few nights - so its strange

I have not thrown up once (knock on wood) I do get nauseous almost every morning while taking a shower.

My boobs are definately rounder and ALOT heavier

I had 1 ultrasound at 6 1/2 weeks and we saw and heard the heartbeat
All my bloodwork came back normal
I went to the doc last night but it was too early to hear the heartbeat with the doppler (He said in another 2 weeks or so we would be able to)

I have my ultrascreen in 8 days and I just cannot wait to go and hear the heartbeat and feel so much better. Then I also worry that something could be wrong and there might not be a heartbeat

Its all so hard!!

It's normal!

I cannot wait until another sono (if there is another ). I go next thursday and I am sure I'll get to hear the HR, but I like to see her. At least now that I feel her, I am put at ease.

But in the begginning it was the only + side to being high risk. We had a bunch of sonos early on.

I am addicted to sonos! I agree it is hard to wait. The wait between the 12 weeks and 20 week seemed like forever! I ended up getting one at 17 and 18 weeks too due to a slight issue.

I don't worry between sonos though because I have the fetal doppler at home.

I HATE waiting..... lol

I been waiting for a month to go to my sonogram. I can not wait to go to my appointment on the 8th.

It's funny you say that cuz I haven't had a sono since 7 weeks and we didn't hear the heartbeat, we just saw it.
I was 11 weeks on Wednesday and when I went to the OB today he pulled out the fetal doppler and we heard the heartbeat - it made me feel soooooooo much better!
Especially since I haven't noticed the nausea and painful boobs for the last few days and I wasn't sure if it was cuz I have a cold or if something had happened.

That's why I have my handy dandy doppler!

I was just saying this at work today...I wish I had my own machine so I could watch it all the time! Then someone told me that Tom Cruise bought a machine when Katie was pregnant....I was like Oh Please! But then again if I had the ability I would too

Re: Who agrees that is SO hard to wait between sonograms?

The 12-20 week wait was the hardest... now that I feel the baby moving a lot it's a little easier for me b/c prior to that I had no idea the little one was okay unless there was a sono or the doc put a doppler to my tummy which was always a relief to hear that heartbeat. I look at the pictures from the 20 week all the time. Next one is in 2 weeks!

Re: Who agrees that is SO hard to wait between sonograms?

i am going nuts waiting for my next appt- i CANT wait to hear the heartbeat for the first time- i just want to make sure everything is ok in there- i will be 12 weeks at the time of the appt.
