The ultrasound

Meet our precious snowflake baby. Baby looks great and has a strong heartbeat of 134 bpm!


The nerves leading up to the ultrasound were unreal. I have never been so scared in my life. But with this amazing news I am so overwhelmed with joy and gratitude that I am in tears. Thank you so much for your prayers.

We will be going back on Monday morning for another ultrasound - not because the RE is worried at all about this baby. But because the RE is ultra cautious that a second baby isn't growing somewhere it shouldn't be. My RE encourages single embryo transfers. So in cases where they transfer more than one, they always like to be extra careful. I'm not worried about that at all, and it's another amazing opportunity to see this beautiful baby growing in there! Can't wait until Monday!

    Yay, I'm so glad all is well. The first scan is the worst to wait for but really special when everything is looking good. Enjoy and it's great that your clinic is giving you another scan so soon.
