Hi ladies.
I am properly introducing myself as of right now. I have known I was pregnant for 2 weeks but was wary of making it "official" until I had seen my baby in the right place with a beating heart on a scan. I had a tubal/ectopic in Feb this year and lost my left tube, so today's scan was a HUGE relief.
By my "dates" I am 6+2 but by the scan I measured "around 5-6 weeks" the sonographer was not able to be precise at this early stage as my cycles are not regular (range from 27 to 31 days so I could be anywhere between 5 and 6 weeks). The fetal pole was teeny at 2mm but there was a lovely strong heart beat (didn't ask for bpm because I do not want to obsess). I am going to keep myself at my original dates till my 12 week scan so I have something to work by.
The sonographer and the nurses at the EPU said that everything looks perfect for where I am right now... so here is my little bean:

Anyway, I feel somewhat happier now I know that at this stage things are progressing as they should.
Waves HI to you all
