Are they having you in for a repeat beta? When will your first ultrasound be?

They did not say anything about repeat beta..but thanks for asking.I'll check with them.I have my U/s on 16th July. They wanted me in on 9th July but I would b out of town for work so it was rescheduled. I'm not sure if I should have rescheduled it or it was important that I go on the original appt date. How many days after beta is(should be) the 1st u/s done ?

Well it honestly just depends. There is no right or wrong answer there. With OB's the first ultrasound is normally done around 8-9 weeks. However, I had my first at 5w6d and the second at 6w5d, then again at 8 weeks, 10 weeks and 12 weeks before we stopped going in for the extra ultrasounds. But I had a miscarriage a few months before conceiving Ethan so he treated me as high risk until I hit my second trimester. Not everyone does a repeat beta either so don't be concerned, I was just asking. I'm so excited for you girl! This is a long time coming!
