5 Week Ultrasound?

Question

Hey! I just found out I'm pregnant after a miscarriage in December of 2017. I'm on Tricare so they referred me to an OB. They set up my appointment with her when I am 5 weeks for an ultrasound and what not. Is that too early? Once I'm 8 weeks I'll be going home for 2 weeks before my husband and I move to North Dakota. Once at North Dakota I'll almost be 15 weeks so I know I need to see a doctor before I leave here. I just don't want it to be a waste.

Answer

I also had a miscarriage December 2017 and found out I was pregnant again today. My doctor scheduled me for my first appointment in the second week of September when I will be 6 weeks. I definitely don't think it will be a waste for you to see your doctor at 5 weeks they should be able to see a Sac by then.

Answer

Was the 5 weeks at their recommendation? In California it is generally 8 weeks. I’ve heard of people going that early and being even more stressed when they cant confirm anything yet. I’d try to wait just a few more weeks if you can.

Answer

So with tricare they didnt get me an ultrasound until 10 weeks. They usually wait until you're out of the danger zone and can see/hear a heartbeat. I'm 4 weeks 1day and probably wont get in for another month
