Sensitive post - viability scan!

[Ajplus1]

This is a post I never thought that I would get the chance to write.

The week leading up to my scan, I was so anxious and petrified that there would be nothing there, that it was all too good to be true and our dreams would be shattered.

We sat anxiously waiting to be called for our scan, a very full bladder and appointment delays are not a good mix! My name was called and we silently went into the room. After an external scan I emptied my bladder and held Joel’s hand tightly as the sonographer silently (without a single word the entire time) began my internal scan.

After a few tense moments, all of a sudden we heard the distinct sound of our babies heart beat loud and clear. Joel and I immediately teared up and stared back and forth between each other and the screen in disbelief.

I know we still have a long way to go but it feels so much more real now and hopefully I can begin to celebrate this wonderful and amazing gift that we have growing inside. I have a follow up scan with our FS in two weeks (due to holidays she couldn’t do my initial scan).

I cannot wait to see our baby again and I hope that he/she continues to grow.

Happy New Year everyone, to those who aren’t quite where they want to be just yet, I hope from the bottom of my heart that 2021 is your year! Xxx
