Ah!! Didn't you love it?? It's so cool. I am so happy for you!
He was moving the u/s stick around trying to see the hb and he saw it way before me and when I finally saw it I got all excited and kind of squealed, I do see it!! haha
and I feel good. so far so good. I'm tired though and my boobs, wowza, ben's in love
My older sister though was worrying the hell out of me because she was worried that the doctor didn't tell me how many beats per minute the hr was. I was like its so early its only supposed to be between 90-110 and she was like nooo it should be like 130-140. I yelled at her and told her the doctor was happy with everything and I didn't need her worrying me. he said the hr was good so i'm happy. and just to confirm I did go back online and read that I was correct, not her!
she is also mad at my dr. that he hasn't told me out loud what my due date is. I was like he told me how far along I am measuring so I figured it out, who cares. and again I had to yell at her and tell her I didn't need her stressing me out.
Don't let her worry you. I don't think they ever told me my due date at any ultrasound. They always just referred to how far along I was. The only time my doctor ever did, was my first appointment and she used that little wheel thing and only based it off my last period. I'm also pretty sure I didn't get any hr information until I was 8+ weeks.
YAY how awesome is that! A HB already?! Geez these little beans grow fast.
I'd just tell your sister she's not being helpful.
its crazy whats already developed at this point! like for real crazy. I had no idea.
and I def. told her she wasn't being helpful. in the past she's said you just need to tell me if something I say bothers you....and i'm not afraid to do that!

thank you for this! I didn't think it was a big deal at all and she was like freaking out on me about it.
That is so exciting and yes, dont let her worry you! My last appointment at 5w6d or something like that the hb was only 106, doctor said it was perfectly fine.
You know what would be an awesome surprise for Ben (and your own piece of mind)? When I was pregnant with A I was constantly worried so I ended up getting a heart doppler on Ebay. They are only $50 and it was so nice being able to just check in on her and heart her hb before bed every night. You cant hear anything before 9 weeks though so you still have time but it was the best thing I ever got! Let me know if you want the link of the one I have.

I asked Ben about this and he wasn't interested at all! he said we would drive ourselves crazy with it
Very exciting!!
Are you writing everything down? I kept a journal with all the my bp, measurements and hb rates from all my appts.
Wow! Good for you. I did not do anything like this, lol
A, calculate your due date based off your last period. That's the date they'll give you at the Dr. They only adjust for an ultrasound if it's way off of the period date- that's how I knew I'd be early with C and thought I'd be late with L...I KNEW when I got pregnant regardless of the period date.

@queensteph17 I know when I ovulated so I know when my due date is. and i'm measuring perfectly according to that.
my sister was just bothered that THEY didn't tell me when my due date was. like who the fuck cares? are you really going to stress me out over this?
The Rowdy Roberts
they don't? I haven't read that anywhere.....
The Rowdy Roberts
didn't we have someone around here give birth on their due date?
The Rowdy Roberts
YAY FOR HB!!!
