We had our first ultrasound at 8 weeks because of early spotting. The ultrasound showed nothing wrong, and that everything was where it was supposed to be. We even saw the little guy's heart beat. It shook the whole bean shaped body. When asked, the doctor said he could not tell the head from the but, let alone gender. That's okay because we do not want to know. One final thing, the utrasound only detected one embryo, so we know we aren't having twins.
In this shot, you can see the X's the doctor used to help measure the embryo. Its length is 11.9 mm, or about 1/2 inch.
