Hey ladies,
Finally had my 12 week scan today! Going off the midwives EDD at my 10 week appointment, I should have been 13 weeks today. However, after seeing that baby had a heart beat and was laying in the incorrect position for measurements (resulting in me taking a 10 min walk to make baby move), we finally learned that baby is measuring at 12 weeks exactly. So I still have one more week of first trimester left.
Baby was looking healthy though and gave us a good few stretches after being woken. It kept stretching its legs out. Sadly, I have been surrounded by family and friends having miscarriages recently so I had convinced myself we'd not see a heart beat today. Seeing that little heart flickering was the best moment. I feel so relieved now. Got a private Gender Scan booked in 5 weeks time and the 20 week scan in 8 weeks. I feel like I can finally start enjoying the pregnancy now. New EDD: August 19th.
