Early boutique ultrasound?

Did anyone opt for an early ultrasound at a boutique around 7-8 weeks?? This is our first pregnancy and I kinda just want to make sure everything looks okay so far. I have no reason to think anything is wrong! But our first ultrasound with our midwife isn’t until at least 10–11 weeks. Is it worth just waiting until baby is more developed anyway?

Some places will have u wait until further along like 10 weeks i think so just make sure that they accept the stage ur in because some wait longer so they dont have to spread bad news if they dont see a heartbeat yet at 7-8 weeks. Not saying that will happen to u but sometimes 7 weeks is early to see that especially if baby isnt measuring at 7 weeks.But yeah u can go if u want!

Yes!! We did a bundle! It was an early ultrasound (7weeks) gender blood test then a gender confirmation ultrasound (14 weeks) and our hsa paid for it all! It really put my mind at ease.

WATER

Anyone else wake up randomly in the middle of night and just chug a ton of water? I swear most of my water intake happens between the hours of 12-3am😅 I’m talking almost an entire 32oz water bottle lol (also and exclusive pumper so not sure if that influences it all)

I am having a chemical pregnancy or just early?

I found out I am pregnant a week ago (I am 4 weeks 5 days pregnant) I am only 4 days late as I found out very early. I have been testing since and my test are staying the same. Has this happened to anyone else? I don’t have much pain just on and off cramps every now and again, no bleeding. I started testing with the pink strips on Wednesday. Should I be worried? Is it normal for my test to stay the same? Other test in comments.

Partners family crossing a line about our baby’s name.

I don’t know if I’m being a bit over sensitive/dramatic.

My baby will be having my partners surname, and his family have chosen the middle name - it’s tradition in their family for the first born son to have a particular middle name - I don’t really like the name but I agreed because it’s important to them.

I have chosen a first name I really love and my partner has agreed to it because he already has the middle and surname, but his family hate it and are trying to convince me out of it. They keep telling me it’s a horrible name and are trying to push other names on me that I don’t like. I’ve tried to explain why I like the name but they just won’t stop and accept it. I’m finding it quite rude and it’s beginning to hurt my feelings. It feels like they don’t care about me having any input in my son’s name at all.

Am I overreacting.. should I just ignore it, should I say something to them or should I consider changing the name since everyone seems to hate it so much?
