I'd definitely just ask DH what the result is. You're going to worry yourself sick stressing over a possibility and not a confirmed actuality.

LoveRR- when I went in for my first sonogram I was measuring a week behind (but we saw a start of a baby). Dr thought everything looked ok and I had just ovulated late. The month I got pregnant was my first time chatting but I had tracked my ovulation with opk to get 3 kids so I thought I was close. I had to come in a week later for another sonogram. The baby had actually caught back up and she keep my due date based on May menstrual period. When I went in for my 12-13 week sonogram they thought I was still measuring a week behind. I know one of my other children was behind if not both and both came a week early and were 6.9 and 6.10 pounds. Hopefully you just Oed late!!
Oh, Quinn!! That's a hard situation. Obviously, I don't know ur DH but it does sound like he's really into letting you not know the gender, I could see him trying to throw you off. With our hormones right now you may drive yourself crazy!!! You may need to ask him.
I'm 19 weeks today!!! I raked yesterday -u don't realize how much ab muscles that takes until you don't have any. Since last night I've been having Braxton hicks. It's sort of scary. Happening often and at the top of my uterus. If you all hadn't just mentioned it I'd be totally freaking out.

Sometimes things can just measure small early on. When I went in at 7 weeks, they had a hard time seeing anything but the sac and said it was measuring closer to 5 weeks, and they couldn't detect enough heartbeat to even measure it. I was so worried, as I'd had two losses before that. But when I went back a week later, they clearly saw baby, and she was measuring 2 days ahead of where she should be. And the heartbeat was nice and strong. So, I would say it's too early to worry yet. I honestly don't think they all grow exactly according to when they should.Quote:
I thought I was over 8 weeks, my last period was February 12th. I went in for my first ultrasound and they didn't see a baby , but saw a nice strong sac. I looked it up and saw it was called ovum blite. They had to do a second ultrasound and it measured 5 weeks 6 days.
My dr said she wants to see me next Thursday and will look for a yolk sac, look for growth , if there is no growth , then it is bad news. The good news is the sac looked nice and round and not shriveled up. What your opinion about this? I have never experienced anything like this .
Hoping hard for you that dh is playing it off, Quinn! I don't know how you have the willpower not to ask. I'd be dying to know. Fingers crossed!!
Okay so I got a Doppler and tried to use it for about 3 mins and gave up. Is there a trick to it or is it too early? I'm 10w5d.

You might be too early Lauren. A gf and I tried for me when I was 12+6 and just managed to hear it for about 5 seconds. You need to be pointing it under your pelvic bone really at that gestation. Don't be surprised if you can't hear it until 12-4 weeks. Sometimes they are good at hiding. You may hear it earlier, but don't freak out if you don't.
Two girls and one boy, due October 16
I picked up Baby J's at about 9 weeks. It takes a lot of patience. I had to go for sides(soft area next to hip bone) and point the wand toward the center and just above the pubic bone to find his/her HB. I also had to push in a bit and baby was often very near the strongest sound of my own HB early on. Even with all the patience in the world sometimes you just gotta wait it out. I tried every few days until I finally caught it and been able to find it daily since. Some people and some pregs you just can't find the baby's HR until after the uterus pops up from behind the pubic bone(around 12 weeks). It also depends on your doppler and it's strength. Finally, sometimes (even now at 14 weeks) I'll hear movement before I find the HB. If you hear the swoosh-swoosh of movement keep looking (and moving) around in that area.
