First Scan

We had our first sneak preview of junior today, though there were some slight disappointment as we didn't really see much. Having gone with Kelly a couple of weeks ago to hers, I expected Milly to be as far along as she was then so the scan to be just as clear. Add to that how large she has already got in such a short space of time, we were thinking she could be much further along than say 5-6 weeks.

Mill started to get really nervous before going but I told her she didn't need to be. We got there on time and went in for the scan about 9:20am. The nurse found the 'sac' quickly and zoomed into it and said that there was a little heartbeat but you couldn't see much else. I couldn't even see the heartbeat. I remember seeing the one at Kelly's scan and it was a clear beating spec but this time I couldn't make anything out. It was quite a disappointment.

She confirmed that we were only 5-6 weeks still and that she was just carrying a lot of water. She had a look around the rest of her stomach and said everything looked good and there was nothing to worry about. We didn't even get a prinout of it, though there was nothing really to see anyway.

Never mind, only another 6 weeks to the next one! We've got our first midwife appointment next Tuesday at 9:30am too. Really looking forward to it.
