I'm having my first ultrasound tomorrow! Yeah! I was wondering how many of you had early ultrasounds and if they were vaginal or abdominal. I'm 8 weeks and i've heard a lot of people on other sites saying that their first ultrasound was vaginal. I was just wondering what to expect. Thanks!

Lots of love,

Hey angie! Thats great!! Since u are only 8weeks they will probably do it vaginally mine wasnt till I was 13 weeks so I had the one on my tummy but if they do it vaginally its this lil wand thing and they put this condom looking thing over it and u will feel a lil pressure and they will be able to see the baby like that....Well hope I helped a lil!!

I know I am late, but I had both. At first they tried on the tummy but I was to early so I then had a vaginal and then a while later I had abdomal. You should have been ready to hear your babies world!!
