What to expect at a 6 week ultrasound?

Question

Saturday we got a BFP (YAY!!) after a miscarriage in November. So my doctor has scheduled my first appt and ultrasound at 6 weeks intstead of her standard which is 8 weeks. I was just wondering what to expect? I understand the baby won't be very big at all but can they see the heartbeat? Will they be able to determine if everything is progressing well? I'm trying to remain calm and positive but my nerves are getting the best of me

Answer

I had an ultrasound yesterday at 9 weeks, and they had to do it abdominally because the vaginal probe was broke. She had to push super hard to barely see anything, and we weren't able to hear the heartbeat, but we did see it and it measured at a healthy 169! (: I was soooo bummed I didn't get a transvaginal ultrasound to get a good look at baby and hear the heart beat. Best of luck to you all! (:

Answer

Hi girls those of you that had a scan at 6 weeks was it transvaginal or abdominal scanning? X

Answer

I had an ectopic a few years ago. When I got pregnant with my daughter, I had to go in at 6 weeks to make sure everything is ok. I heard and saw her heartbeat.

Answer

You should be able to see a little bean, the heartbeat, and you can hear the heartbeat too.
