How early should I go for an ultrasound ?

Question

I’m 4 weeks 2 days. I want to announce to my family at Christmas (I will be 8 weeks) and I’m wanting to give them an early ultrasound. My doctor can’t get me in until January 17th where I will be 12 weeks already. I really want to go a little earlier for peace of mind and to have an ultrasound to announce with. How early should I go? Any ideas on where I could go or how I could get one done?

Answer

You’ll need to get a transvaginal, so you’ll need to find somewhere that does elective transvaginal ultrasounds. Also you’re not going to see much until 7-8 weeks, so it might not be worth the trouble of going through all of that before Christmas 😕

Answer

Private ultrasound is probably the only way

My OB dis an Ultrasound to confirm pregnancy. I was 5 weeks with both my kids when i went in. But the only thing we could see was the sac. Nothing else. Heres the pic of when i was 5 weeks with my second.

Answer

Like PP said it’s still too early earliest would be 8 weeks with most doctors appointments some do 6weeks but even then some doctors don’t recommend it until between 8-12weeks . It’s typically not until a woman is six weeks pregnant that any part of the fetus is visible, which allows the doctor to determine whether a pregnancy will be viable.
Because of this, it’s important that women understand what information their ultrasound can and cannot provide at certain times during their pregnancy. And they should be prepared to wait to learn more about their baby, if it’s too soon.

First off, Congratulations! I am 4weeks 4days and am planning on telling my family on Christmas as well and was hoping to get an ultrasound pic also but my 1st doc appt isn't scheduled till 10 weeks. So I am just gonna get a onesie that says " Santa isn't the only one coming to town! Baby Miller arriving August 2020". I also seen ones that said " your present is on backorder this year and will be arriving August 2020". you could do something like that instead. I seen lots of ideas on etsy.

Answer

Doctors wont do an ultrasound that early. You won't even see a sac till about 6 weeks even then it's still early.
