When I had my first ultrasound I had an internal. I dont remember now how far along I was. I would have to go and see the picture. I cried, it was the happiest thing ever. But it gets better, when I had my next ultra ultra sound, when I thought I was lossing my fluid, I was able to see him with his hands on his face, fingers in mouth, I got 4 pictures from that one. I only got like 2 from the first. It is a great feeling to me a mother, and to show people that you are gonna make it. I take my son with me everywhere, he is my little shadow. But sometimes I guess I get crazy, I want to work, but I dont want him in daycare, so I simply said no. Plus the doc said that rsv is starting early this season. I am praying for you, and I bet that you can see what it is. Ask the doctor what it is, sometimes they can give you a guess by this from the heartbeat. My doc did and she was right, I had a midwife though!!

Good luck!!

I had my first ultrasound when I was 3 mths. And I saw my little peanut that defenitely changed every thing the moment I saw her but I started listening to her heartbeat when I was only 2 mths. But till you experience it thats when you really get to find out you rreal emotions

Hey jordan. That's great. I had my first ultrasound at 10 weeks. How far along are you? He was only about an inch long then and there wasnt much to see, so they only gave me 2 pictures. Yesterday, I got to see (in caps) all of him and it was great. I got 10 pictures and a video of it yesterday. My friend thinks im a lil pervert cuz I keep lookin at the pic of his little penis too make sure its a boy.....Lol. I just wanna be sure! But im pretty sure its a boy. But good luck! Btw liz, an internal ultrasound is just like a wand thing thats like, maybe 6 inches long. They put a condom-like thing over it and put some k-y jelly on that and then it goes in your vagina. It gives a very clear picture. I'm pretty sure they probably have those in england. They are more common in the beginning of pregnancy though. When everything is too litle to see from the outside.

Aw best of luck at ur appt jordan! I can only imagine what it'll be like to see ur little one for the very first time...Oo just the word internal makes me a bit lightheaded lol, but im sure its so rewarding in the end....Sparkly I watch birth day almost everyday, and then a baby story, lol I love it! My brother's always complaining because everytime he walks into a room that im in, theres always a woman up in stir ups screaming and pushing lol....He doesnt do well with blood....But anyways, best of luck jordan and let us know how it goes!
