Hi Ladies
Sheesh, I haven't been keeping up on this thread, and boy has a lot happened! It's amazing the number of ladies we have on this thread now!
ttc: I'm so sorry that you've had to go through this loss, and I hope you'll be back with another sticky BFP soon!
Last week I went in for my first doctor's appointment (where I got registered in the hospital and in the midwife system, etc, and got given a lot of information about what to expect through the pregnancy). Today I went in and had my first scan. Everything was perfect! I measured ahead 2 days ahead at 6w5d which bumps my due date up to March 29th. Baby was sitting there snugly, with a healthy heartbeat just thumping away.
I got registered for my nuchal scan at 12w5d. I'm already looking forward to seeing baby again.
It was so cool to see bubs there, with heartbeat, and could even see the umbilical cord going out from bubs' little tummy.
I was so nervous before this scan, as I have read just so many things on here about MC and in particular MMC (I haven't had any cramping or bleeding, so no reason to suspect MC, but you hear all these stories where bubs didn't ever get a heartbeat, or passed away, and it's just terrifying!) DH was so unconcerned; he was convinced everything would be totally fine, and he was right. Maybe I should just listen to him more often
Good luck with your scan Taz, and I'll def be checking in this thread more often now that I know everything's OK and I dare to get excited
(of course I know we're not out of the woods yet, but something very reassuring about seeing bubs and a heartbeat).
