My First Pelvic Ultrasound

This is my very first pelvic ultrasound. I was asked by my first OB to have this ultrasound to check if the baby inside my tummy is doing okay. According to the ultrasound report..

• Within the gravid uterus is a single fetus with a crown - rump length of 1.2 cm.
• Real time scans show active fetal cardiac flicker.
• The bulk of the placenta is anteriorly implanted. No areas of hemorrhage are seen.
• The internal cervical os is intact.
• No adnexal masses are seen.

I feel so happy when the doctor told me that my baby's heartbeat was already detected as early as that moment. It only means my baby is alive!

Thus, the impression based from my pelvic ultrasound are:

• Single live intrauterine pregnancy of a diagnostic gestational age of 7 weeks and 3 days.
• EDC is 10 February 2013 +/- 10 days

Whew! I'm so much happy with my expected date of delivery because February 10 is my hubby's birthday. How I wish I will really give birth on that said date so that my hubby and our son (hopefully) will have the same birthday.

My next ultrasound will be by late November or early December where I'm hoping to know my baby's gender already. I'm really positive about having a baby boy. So I really hope and pray God will grant my wish this year, a healthy baby boy.
