Today I had my 12 week scan. And everything is looking perfect! I was of course worried that something was going to go wrong...as we do when weve been through the struggles we all have. Luckily my fiance got to go in with me this time...thank gosh because I was a wreck! Oh and to top it all off 1 hour before we left for appt. We had a pretty decent earthquake 5.9 centered a 30min drive from me (im in new zealand) so my nerves were extra rattled! π£ to see an actual baby on the screen just blew my mind! I am 12+5 today and baby is measuring 13+4 so sonographer said baby is growimg nicely π Baby was jumping around on the screen even sucked their thumb for us! Im so in love already, and I know this worry I live with daily (not once can I pee without looking at the loo paper π€¦ββοΈ) will not leave me until I have baby in arms. I feel so blessed and so greatful...still waiting for it all to sink in.
I pray that each and every one of you will have your little miracles one day too. It really CAN happen, I had lost all hope and had given up...then this π. I will be forever greatful β€π

Iβm so delighted to see this update huge congratulations such a wonderful milestone to reach well done π₯° itβs crazy you can feel such love for a little person whoβve you have never met π itβs sad we canβt enjoy it more without such worry. All the best with the rest your pregnancy xxx
Thank you. Yes it's still hard to believe this is happening! Cant wait to feel some movement to help ease the anxiety! And yes I'm so in love already π€π thank you for your kind words πβ€
Thanks hun π and yes I am greatful to be here we have almost rid the country if this stupid virus! Your country on the other hand not doing so well I see π you and your family stay safe β€β€
Really pleased to hear all is going well. When youβve been through so much to get this far it is understandable to be nervous all the way through. I was the same. Itβs one of the oh so cruel things about infertility - it robs you of your ability to enjoy your pregnancy. All you can do is tell yourself that each milestone met means thereβs less chance that something will go wrong and hopefully youβll be able to enjoy some of it. I found I relaxed a bit when I started to feel kicks (though of course if there was ever a short period when there wasnβt any then Iβd be worried again).
Hope the earthquake hasnβt caused too much damage!
