Last Monday the News Came!
Posted: 05-01-06 09:57am

On the 23 of april I found out I was pregnant! I'm ten almost eleven wks. Now the question is when should I have my first ultrasound? My husband can't wait to see the baby! I'm so excited, cause I thought something was seriously wrong with me, since all my irregularities! However, god has answered my prayers.

Congrats! Do you get to decide when you have an ultrasound? I guess I didn't understand your question. I don't have any say in when I get mine. I'll only be getting one and it's going to be at 18 weeks (that's the earliest they'll tell the sex here). They'll do more if they think there's a problem or a reason for one but my doctors generally only do one. It's on may 31st and I can't wait! Congrats again and good luck!

Well, i've been sick for a while. But I have had extremely irregular periods. And any month I miss I have to take a hpt in march I missed and did the test and it was negative. When I missed again in april and I was begining to feel food sick, I decided it was time to take another one. This time it was postive! So the next day I went to the doctors to get it confirmed. And it was definately positive! So that's why I didn't know sooner, the first test came back negative! As to the ultrasound I was told by 11wks I am to have a first ultrasound on record. But i'm right now considered "high risk" because before I was pregnant I was 145lbs and since then I am 131lbs. So they said that will make me have more ultrasounds. My first one won't be till i'm 13wks. The who new patient to this ob-gyn!
Sry this was so long! I have a final to finish so see you all later!
