bleeding but pain, my dr sent me for my u/s, but  when I got there I was
told as my tests were negative that they wouldn't scan me unless their test

I've just had my first ultrasound at 13 weeks.  I can't believe how active
the little baby is!  It was jumping all over the place, swallowing, sucking
