An ultrasound is this thing where they put stuff on your stommach

and the reflections of high-frequency sound waves construct an image

of a body organ, observe fetal growth, or study bodily organs.

Fetal frowth is a baby.

so you can go and get an ultrasound that will show you the baby your carrying.

unless you really meant altrasound,

but that's not a word.

ahah, I hope i helped you out. =]

Heart beat not found in altrasound what you do?

If a heart beat isn't found in an ultrasound it doesnt always mean the baby is dead, the doctor will probably run more tests to see, sometimes they baby is in a position where it is hard to pick up the heat.

How could you tell a tubal pregnancy?

Sometimes there are no signs of ectopic pregnancies. However, normal signs are pain, cramping, diziness, bleeding, or spotting along with the normal pregnancy symtpoms. If you feel like you may have any of these symptoms, you doctor can take blood tests to check your hormone levels and maybe an altrasound to confirm for sure. An ectopic pregnancy can be very serious, so if you have these symptoms, please contact your doctor ASAP. Good Luck!


I am 18wks pregnant and just starting to get a baby bump Is that normal?

what you see as a baby bump is not the whole of the baby, you don't start growing outwards intill you've got no more moving space inside, your organs all sqwish together to make room. the size of your bump dose not indicate the size of the baby if your altrasound says baby is the right size and your bump gets gradualy bigger (how ever slowly) you've got nothing to worry about. please email me if you have anymore questions i have 7 month old and read everything there is to read when i was pregnant Chrissye_13@hotmail.com


If you detect an ectopic pregnancy and go to the doctors within six weeks of pregnancy is it safe?

I am not sure what you mean by safe... no ectopic pregnancy is really considered safe. You do need to have surgery as soon as possible to have it removed, or it may rupture and cause more damage. I was only 5 weeks when my doctors detected mine, and I was sent into surgery that day. I am so happy I went when I did, because I started having severe pain when waiting at the hospital to go into surgery. If the doctors have not detected it yet, and you truly feel you have symptoms... call them immediately and let them now how you feel. I am sure they will do a blood test or altrasound to make sure you are okay. Hope this helped...Good Luck!


Why would there be no fetal movement at 18 weeks 4 days?

When you say "no fetal movement" do you mean that you have just been unable to feel the baby move as of yet? Or have you had altrasounds that show that the baby does not move? For my first pregnancy I did not feel he baby move till 20 weeks. And the pregnancies after that I was able to feel a bit earlier, but not much. I would say if you are getting good heart tones and the altrasound shows well, not to worry, likely soon you will be asking to not be able to feel it for a while. If you have felt it a lot, and than for days are not feeling it, that is a certain reason for a trip to the doc to check for the babies heart. But if you have not felt it at all yet, try to be at peace, and trust your little one is on Gods hands.


If a home pregnancy test says negative but you're experincing the signs that you're pregnant does that mean that you're pregnant?

no that does not mean your pregnate it just means your period is acting up from you having physical contact with a man. unless the test was wrong. the way to tell if it's wrong is feel your belly and see if your getting any fatter and if you are then your might be pregnate. unless you aren't eating healthy and make sure you always eat healthy. also another way to tell that always works is go to a doctor. are you dumb or something, go to a doctor they can tell if you are with an altrasound or something. then if you are make sure to take care of the baby or else you'll regret it fro the rest of your life.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do you know what kind of twins they are?

Genetic testing is the only way to positively identify what type of twins you are having. Identical or monozygotic (MZ) twins occur when a single egg is fertilized to form one zygote (hence, "monozygotic") which then divides into two separate embryos. Half-identical or semi-identical twins (also referred to as "half twins") are the result of a very rare form of twinning in which the twins inherit exactly the same genes from their mother but different genes from their father. Fraternal or dizygotic (DZ) twins (also referred to as "non-identical twins" and in cases of females, occasionally sororal twins) usually occur when two fertilized eggs are implanted in the uterus wall at the same time. When two eggs are independently fertilized by two different sperm cells, fraternal twins result.


A client with DVT will undergo what?

There are so many acronymns in medicine and healthcare; I can only assume you mean Deep Vein Thombosis? DVT occurs when a blood clot occludes (blocks off) blood flow within a vein, usually a major vein in the leg. In DVT, the leg below the blockage may swell, become purplish-red, and may be hot to the touch. The primary diagnostic is a venous ultrasound, meaning, an altrasound done to the affected limb. The ultrasound shows, visually and with Doppler (sound), how much of the blood vessel is blocked, where it is blocked, and whether the thombosis looks intact or looks as if it may be shredding, leading to a life-threatening embolus (a blood clot moving freely toward the heart and lungs). The primary treatment is with immediate heparin administered in the hospital over 5 to 7 days. Some doctors allow patients to remain at home with daily injections of a different blood-thinning medication. After the immediate treatment, the patient takes Coumadin, usually for 1 to 3 years with weekly bloodwork. A select few remain on Coumadin lifelong.
