5 week scan :-)

This morning my husband and I went over to our fertility clinic and they happily gave us a scan :-) it didn't show much just what looked like a tiny dot but it's there our baby is fine and all is as it should be :-) no words can describe how happy we both our and I can finally relax for the next few weeks. We are due to go back next Thursday for a 6 week scan and I cannot wait. Apparently the bad pains I have been having are normal along with what they have said could be me stressing so I intend to take things easier now that my mind has been put at ease and I know we are finally on our way to becoming parents 😊 x

You're so lucky. I'm still waiting on my first scan which is tomorrow and by then I will be 8+4! I hope everything is still going smooth with yourself and all the best for a healthy pregnancy.

Thank you :-) we have had a scan every week and the difference each week is mind blowing, our fertility clinic is going to scan us every week until our 12 week scan. I'm sure you are so excited for tomorrow 😁 wishing you all the best for a healthy pregnancy 😊 xx

Thank you. May I ask if there's a reason for the weekly scans or if it's just something your clinic offers to everybody? It sounds really reassuring and must make you so much more relaxed. :-)

They must offer it, wasn't expecting to be scanned every week but yea it definitely reassures me 😊 I do get nervous when they are about to scan but so far so good 😊
