Test came positive yesterday and doc asked me to come for a scan. Im not sure which type of ultrasound they do this early. First pregnancy so everything is new for me na.
I felt so emotional during our first viability scan at 7 weeks. Seeing that tiny flickering heartbeat on the screen made me cry! It is usually done to confirm everything is safe and in the right place.
It's called a dating scan, but trust me, there is nothing romantic about it! They usually do it around 7 weeks to check the heartbeat. Enjoy the peace now before the baby arrives and robs your sleep!
They usually start with a dating scan around 7 weeks. Since I had thyroid issues, my doctor kept a very close eye on all my early scans. Make sure you follow whatever schedule your gynac gives you.
To confirm the pregnancy, doctors usually do an early viability scan around 7-8 weeks. Keep your faith strong and stay positive, God will bless you with a beautiful journey.
The first one is the viability scan around 6-8 weeks to check the baby's heartbeat. Once that scan goes well and my doctor gave me the go-ahead, I started my light prenatal yoga and walking.
I am planning soon and was researching this too! Is the first scan always a transvaginal one, or do they do abdominal scans as well in the very beginning?
