Would an ultrasound be able to tell the difference between a fetus at 4wks3days and 7wks3days from conception your scan showed a faint flicker of a heartbeat which date is it more likely to be?

Absolutely a scan can tell the difference within 3 weeks at this stage. The heartbeat would be visible at both 7 and 10 weeks (which you would be pregnancy wise). Measurements are taken to date the pregnancy so you need to ask the doctor/tech/nurse how many weeks pregnant you are.

Ultrasound tech yearly salary?

I was curious about the going rate for Ultrasound techs. On line it says between 45-50 per year. But some one told me $42/hr.

How can you tell if your 1966 mustang is a GT?

Ford Mustang 1964 1965 Factory GTFFor 1964 to 1966, the car has fog lights, dual exhaust, stiffer suspension,

and front disk brakes. All of these things could be added "aftermarket" and since there is nothing in the car serial number there is no way for sure to tell if the car is a "factory ordered" GT or if someone added parts after the fact.

A way to take a good guess if it a factory GT is to poke your fingers in the holes where the exhaust hangs from the undercarriage. "Specifically, this is an extra reinforcement bracket on the forward side of the access hole. All Mustangs have the little bracket toward the rear of the access hole, toward the rear spring, but the one hole that faces the front of the car is present only on true dual exhaust Mustangs. You've got to stick your little finger in there and push up to feel it."..... quoted from Mustang Monthly April 1995

Finally, the GT had a tight ratio steering box HCC-AX (manual steering) or HCC-AW (power steering). Again, the dual exhaust could be ordered as a separate option, as well as the tight ratio steering box,, or added after market although few wrench heads that make their cars into " GT Clones" bother to change the steering box. So these checks give you a better idea and good guess but the bottom line is there is NO sure way to tell if a car is a factory GT unless someone saved the original order form and invoice.... there are a few more checks, and other info for the later year cars, but for that info you will have to go to our website http://www.mustangdreams.com

Answer

It is very popular for people restoring their cars to "upgrade" them to GT lookalikes in the process. There is a company called Marti auto works that You can order a Marti report in which they go back to the build records for the cars and try to determine what came on your car originally. Basically they are trying to recreate the build sheet originally used when the car was created. There are several prices for several different levels of their reports, and basically the more you pay the more they dig and the more information they have and the more accurate your report will be. I believe they usually include some interesting statistics about how many cars came with this color code/engine/tranny combination.

Answer

Sorry, Marti reports do not go back to 66. There are dual exhaust hanger mounts under the back seat with a reinforcement. No real way to tell unless the owner has original build sheet. All the information from first poster is very good. Irishmustang

Would it be healthy to have a 0 MGDL triglyceride level?

No. Although too much triglycerides is harmful to health, they are nonetheless needed in the body. It would not be possible to have a triglyceride count of 0 mg/dL.

Based on your LMP you are 7 weeks pregnant but an ultrasound said you are only 5 weeks How is this possible Am you going to have a miscarriage?

Because a pregnancy is counted from the first day of the last menstrual period, but the actual conception doesn't take place til about the 14th day after the start of the last period. So while you're physically 5 weeks pregnant, the medical field considers you 7 weeks pregnant. It's for accuracy of dating.

Determining pregnancy start dates has a bit of guess work involved. At seven weeks I wouldn't be overly concerned unless you are a heavy smoker/drinker, which could easily show as slowing the growth process of the baby. Talk to your doctor!

Can a transabdominal ultrasound detect pregnancy 3 wk 4 days after actual date you conceived?

the earliest this can detect pregnancy is 5 weeks after last menstrual cycle so yes the tech. may be abl;e to see the embryo.

What features of a fetus can you see at four weeks?

Your embryo may be the size of a mere poppy seed, but trust us, uber-important developments are already under way. This week the embryo splits into two parts. One half will become the placenta, a special tissue that delivers must-haves like nutrients and oxygen to your baby throughout your entire pregnancy. In the other half, the embryo itself continues to grow, and a sheet of cells has just begun to create the neural tube, where your baby's brain, spinal cord, and backbone will ultimately form. Taking a folic acid-packed prenatal supplement -- look for one with at least 400 micrograms per pill -- helps ensure that these organs develop properly.

You had a scan done at the hospital and the sono said you were 6 weeks pregnant but then you went to your doc and he said you were 4-5 weeks y would this be?

Doctors are scientists, not psychics. Your doctor was making his best guess with what information he had. Chances are the scan provided more detailed information and is more correct. The exact date of conception is nearly impossible to figure out unless the woman can say with certainty.

Can a dating scan for pregnancy be as much as a week off when done before 10 weeks?

Yes it can be sometimes when your around 6-7 weeks into your pregnancy. At 10 weeks, based on the size of the foetus and conception date a pretty accurate date can be arrived at. Yes it can if you have a long cycle. My date from my period was 23rd September but I had a 36 day cycle and my scan date was 4th October.

If an ultrasound says you are 17 weeks and 3 days pregnant is that the day you conceived or would it be that date plus an extra 2 weeks?

That means it is the date conceived (or within 48 hours of). It is never right on, but within a week of. Go by what the ultrasound says. No, if your ultrasound says 17 weeks and 2 days that would be that date plus 2 extra weeks, that is around the time of your last period, unless you have irregular periods or conceived straight after a miscarriage or something. The length of pregnancy is always measured from your last period even by ultrasound.

Is the EDD given to you on your scan date from your LMP or by the date of conception?

EDD is ESTIMATED. If done by scan is 38 weeks from conception. An EDD is based on the LMP (last menstrual period) and not the date of conception. The ultrasound measurements are comparing the baby to the expected size of other babies at the same gestational age. The earlier the ultrasound is done in the pregnancy, the more accurate it will be. Hope this helps! Dr. B.

What happens if you find out at 10 weeks that your baby has no heartbeat and was there something you did wrong that you could have changed?

It is highly unlikely you did anything wrong. Some pregnancies are just not meant to be. Sometimes the placenta (afterbirth) does not become well attachedm, or does not start producing the hormones it should. Sometimes there is an illness affecting the baby. None of this is your fault.

How do you tell your dad you are getting married and moving out but you are 18 and still in school and on top of everything else you are his baby girl?

Don't do it! You were raised by your parents for 18 years and you can wait until you finish school. That's not asking so much. Don't be in too big a rush into marriage, because trying to finish school and getting married is extremely difficult. Also, I am sure your father would love to take part in your wedding plans. If your boyfriend loves you he won't mind waiting until you are 19. My mother died a year ago this July, and I am so glad I stayed with her until I was 21 years old before I got married (you don't have to wait that long.) When you get older you realize just what an impact your parents have on you and if you can't see it from a mature level then you are missing out on a lot. Please think of this, discuss it with your boyfriend and ease into it and give your father a little bit of warning. Good luck Marcy

Is it possible to hear a babys heart beat loud and strong at nine weeks pregnant?

With a doctors "listener" it can be heard. I wouldn't say loud and clear, but it's possible it could be loud and clear, depends on the woman and the baby.

AnswerYes I heard my babys heartbeat at 9 weeks pregnant with a at home fetal monitor. AnswerA vaginal ultra sound can detect a heartbeat as soon as 6 weeks gestation but more commonly at 7-8 weeks. The fetal Doppler used on the outside of your belly should pick up a heartbeat at 12 weeks clearly. AnswerA fetal heartbeat can be heard as early as 8-10 weeks pregnant using a good fetal Doppler such as one rented from Tummy Tickles or a company like that. AnswerYes it can be heard. I had an ultrasound at 7 weeks and heart it perfectly and then again at 9 weeks on a Doppler in the doctors office.

Is it necessarily true if an ultrasound tech told you you are pregnant?

It depends what stage you are at. If very early the embryo may not develop but if there is a fetal heart then you are definitly pregnant.

pretty reliable but use it a few times to make sure or go to a lab tested one

You know your due date im just trying to figure out the day you concieved?

Well the average baby takes 9 moths to develop so think back 9 months from the due date. It's not exactly 9 months, but it depends on the development of the baby.
