Ultrasounds

Hi

If your gynecologist says that there is a risk of miscarriage it normally means that they could not find a viable pregnancy....don't worry though in some cases when they say this it means they don't really have enough info to say that the pregnancy is viable. I went through the same thing but unfortunately i miscarried after 2 weeks. When i spoke to the doc they said they have to find a heartbeat to determinate viability if not that then they should at least be able to see if the baby is the right size for how many weeks you are. If they don't find both these things they refer it as not viable but should call you bac after 10 days for further testing to make sure.

They can measure by gestational age and they also use the measurements of the fetus to determine age.

the y chromesome means male, the x chromesome is female. if there are 2 y's its a boy, if its an x and y it's a female.

A specially designed transducer probe can be placed in the vagina to provide better ultrasound images. This transvaginal or endovaginal scan is particularly useful in early pregnancy or in cases where ectopic pregnancy is suspected.

bout the size of your little finger if you curled it up (assuming you don't hv chubby/muscular fingers) for pregnancy what should be size of ovary

Hello, I'm sure you're going crazy right now. The same thing happened to my husband and I and after having an ultrasound several weeks later, everything was fine. All there is at this point in your pregnancy is the sac and often times the fetus can not be seen for another week or two. Your doctor may opt to have you take Hcg blood tests to ensure your levels are rising (rules out an ectopic pregnancy in most cases). Be patient, amazing things are happening in your body. If you have spotting or bleeding then call your doctor immediately.

Its the wonder working power of God...

they use soundwaves to produce the images.

Scaning is if you don't not have money you can scan your card

No. The only way to be absolutely certain of who the father is, is a paternity test. Most people still choose the standard blood test. DNA testing is 99.9% conclusive, but is more costly. Ultrasound only indicates the growth and health of the fetus. A calculated guess can be made on the "age" but definitely not the paternity.

A subchorionic hemorrhage (also called a subchorionic hematoma) is a fairly common event in early pregnancy where a small blood clot forms at the edge of the placenta and the amniotic sac. These clots are usually around 1cm in size, but can be either larger or smaller. These cannot be "caused" but rather reflect bad luck. Although there is a somewhat increased risk of miscarriage (and, in some studies, of pre-term birth), from everyone I know and read about almost all patients go on to have uneventful pregnancies. The bleeding usually stops, and the clot resolves on it's own.

It would be crazy to see any heartbeat at five weeks.

They are completely normal looking, even having hair and eyebrows/eyelashes.

Seven-month-old fetuses are sometimes not even considered premature, as they often have the ability to survive perfectly fine outside the womb. Fetuses have been known (in rare cases, mind you) to survive healthily after only just over five months of pregnancy.

They have normal responses and whatnot; many will even turn toward a light shone on their mothers' pregnant bellies.

Sadly it looks as though your baby has died at some stage and you have not yet completely miscarried. At 12 weeks the baby is still very small but it is fully formed and would be visible.

I go by the LMP, but even then I had mine early.

The benefit of using a 4D ultrasound is that people get to see the progress of their baby. The technology used in a 4D ultrasound allows a movie like feel since they can watch how their to be born baby is moving.

This means the baby is foot first instead of head first

You may be if it is within up to six weeks after your last period. Before about five and a half weeks, the baby itself will not be visible yet; only the sac will be seen. Sometimes this can be a little later if the baby was conceived later than dates suggest.

Sometimes a baby may die very early on in pregnancy, or never develop at all. Then, only a sac will show. Then, the presence of a sac only indicates you were pregnant at some time but are no longer.

Its not likely; If you are in the latter part of your second week there may be a yolk sac but the heart beat wont even begin until week 5.

I'm not sure, but I am meant to be 9 weeks pregnant and went for scan and they could only find gestational sack at 6 week size, no fetal heartbeat. Prepared me for miscarriage. Then had bloods done and HCG levels were 18000, then 18900. My thoughts were that my body still thinks I'm pregnant, and hence still producing HCG...but doc wants to wait and see as he said if you had a twin and it perished, this could explain why the gestational sack is still small - so it could be a viable pregnancy....

I wish he didn't give me false hope!

go to walmart and buy the book that tells you every thing you need to know about having a baby and maybe you should look into your finances

You will usually ovulate 2-8 weeks after a miscarriage. It varies in every Woman.

LMP stands for the date of your Last Menstrual Period. It is used to determine an estimated due date but can be used in basic medical records also
