I now this might seem funny but.... A lot of women say they get depressed at there first us because they can't make out the baby! They say its hard to see the baby! Anybody run into this??? What causes a blurry us or is it just a rumor? Im very excited its tomorrow I will be 12 weeks (we should be able to hear the heart beat right? I which I could find out the sex of the baby!!! Next time I guess can everyone share with me your first time seeing the baby I would really love to read about your experiances! Im nervous and anxious!

Oh you will be able to see you baby at 12 weeks. At 12 weeks I could see everything she was only like and inch long but I could see her head and her little arms and legs and the faint squggily line is the umbilical cord. Just make sure that your ob gets a good clear pic!

I had my fist u/s at 8 weeks, and it looked like a little bean!! Lol!! It didn't depress me, I knew I wouldn't be seeing much....I had another appt at about 13 weeks and you can definitly make out a little baby in there!! Arms sprouting, and a head!! So cute!! Sorry, no chance of finding out the sex that soon though.....You'll just have to wait!! :)

Urggggggg!!!!!! I went for my appointment, and the nurse asked me what I was there for, I told her my ultra sound, she proseded to tell me I was scheduled for a physical, nothing about any kind of prenatal visit!!! Luckily I saw my dc and he did a doppler and we heard the babies heart beat! That was very exciting!!! But my ultrasound is now on monday! Isn't there some kinda myth about the babies heart beat being a girl or boy based on beats per min?? Thanks for everyone listening to my health forum session!!

Im not sure if this is true or not.. But ive read in a pregnancy magazine that the higher number of heartbeats means its probably a girl and a lower number of heart beats is usually a boy. Im not sure how true this is.. But a lot of people say its true.... What was your babies heartbeat?
