first appt next week

[jchope]

My first appointment is next week I will be 7w1d. They stated they will check for heartbeat... I believe it is to soon for ultrasound, will it be done vaginally ??? Anyone had this experience yet?

I had a vaginal u's done at what they say I would have been 7 weeks 4 days and saw baby and strong heartbeat- (baby measured 8 weeks 2 days)-

Vaginal ultrasound happen to get able to get access and can let you see things better. I have a tilted uterus so I'll have to only get Vaginal till about 20 weeks. I went for just a ultrasound at 7 weeks and 5 days according to my LMP, my paperwork asked if I was already 7 weeks. When we did an ultrasound I measured only 6 weeks 1 day. Which is a big difference, but the baby was there and had a flicker. 118Hbpm. I run a high risk pregnancy being my fourth after 3 miscarriages. I was waiting for 8 weeks, I was even gonna wait till 10 weeks but I had to see. I see an ob Tuesday but I think It's Okay to go whenever. The baby is in the safest place. What's needs to happen will :)

Yes they normally do your first ultrasound vaginal. Dont worry its not bad. Then after that one its on the belly ones. Good luck :)

My doctor did a vaginal and over the belly ultrasound. CONGRATS! I heard my baby's heartbeat at 5w6d

I was told that it's best to do an ultrasound after 8 weeks. I had my first Dr appt at 6 weeks and 3 days.  My ultrasound is scheduled for Friday and I will be 9 weeks and 4 days. Good luck. I have no idea what to expect for the ultrasound because this is my first pregnancy.
