Baby is absolutely perfect. Measuring exactly on track for 7+1 and a fast heartbeat at 144bpm. I’m officially discharged from the RE which makes me so nervous but first OB appt is next week on 3/12.
OMG amazing!!!! I’m so incredibly happy for you and will continue to send good vibes. I hope you’re able to relax even just a tiny bit, and not stress too much before your next appointment.
I am so so so happy!!! I am surprised you graduated from the RE already! WE were kept until 11 weeks.
Glad you have an OB appointment already. Let them know up front about your loss history and see if you can get extra appointments to ease your mind. Our clinic let me come in weekly just for a quick heartbeat check to reassure me. They were so understanding and supportive.
I also graduated from the RE at that point, which was nerve wracking but also such an amazing milestone. I'm glad you don't have to wait long for your next appointment.

It is so terrifying and confusing because it feels like everyone else gets to stay with their RE for so much longer! Like shauni27 said, everyone else I know gets to stay until 10 or 11 weeks. I feel a little a abandoned!
My OB is a rec from a friend with infertility and loss and she said he was so reassuring and comforting and offered her extra appointments. That first visit won’t have an ultrasound but hoping they can get me in soon after for another scan so I don’t go off the rails.
Once we saw a heartbeat, we were discharged from the RE too. So I think around 6 weeks.
In the early days, when it was too soon to hear the heartbeat on the doppler, by OB pulled out a low-ish tech ultrasound machine once or twice just to see/hear the heartbeat. I think it was just for my benefit. They might be able to do the same for you, especially given your loss history.
Best news! How are you feeling, physically? Good, I hope!
Nauseous and so bloated and icky. I actually love it. It’s horrible but it’s what I’ve been waiting for for so long that I’m not even mad. I’m sure I’ll change my tune once it goes on and on and I feel progressively worse. 😂
Love of my life baby boy born 11/11. One and done not by choice; 3 years of TTC yielded 4 MMC and 2 CPs, through 4 IUIs and 2 IVFs. Focusing on making the world a better place instead...and running.

You won't. Even when I was in so much pain from back issues it was still such an amazing thing.

I’m bleeding like a motherfucker again today. Maybe my body just hates the progesterone taper since this is the second time it’s happened after starting to go to every other day? Anyways, I’m back on daily PIO and after a long saga of being told by me RE that they couldn’t see me for ultrasounds (only bloodwork) after I’d been discharged to the OB and the OB telling me I wasnt their patient until I see them next week so they couldn’t do any ultrasounds, I’m now scheduled for one for tomorrow morning. God I hope my baby is ok. I’m so emotionally exhausted.
And I’m only 7w4d tomorrow so hopefully the abdominal ultrasound isn’t a shitshow.
