& I saw my little one! He/she had a
strong heartbeat & measured 7 weeks 6
days.. I thought I was 8 weeks 3 days, so
not much difference really. The midwife
said it could change at my next scan
though, so I'm still thinking of my due
date as the 22nd for now. I doubt the
little monkey will come on time anyway!
He/she just looked like a blob, but the
cutest blob I've ever seen I didn't get
any pictures sadly, but I should get some
at my 12 week scan.
The midwife said she could see a small
cyst in my uterus, but it didn't concern
her.. she said it wouldn't cause any
problems.
I'm going to try not to worry so much
about this pregnancy from now on. Now I
know my baby is thriving in there I'm a
lot happier!

Glad to hear everything is right on
schedule. That 1st scan is mighty
comforting. Congrats on the new baby by
the way..lol
Are you hoping for a boy or a girl? Have
you thought of names yet? I know its a
little early but still. Cant help
myself...lol
I really don't mind whether it's a boy or
a girl.. I'd love a little boy so we have
one of each, but we have lots of pink
things so another girl would probably be
more practical. hehe
As for names, we think we've chosen them,
but I'm keeping them a secret for now!

That is great to hear, Zanny! How are you
feeling? Did they mention what they think
the pains could have been?

I'm soooo glad you got to see the
heartbeat! It's so hard to know if your
little peanut is alright when they are
that small. When they get bigger and you
feel them moving all the time, you don't
worry as much. My original due date was
May 27th, but when I went in for my first
ultrasound she was measuring 7w 4d instead
of 10 weeks so they changed it. I think
it's a common thing.

If it comes back just go to a regular
emergency room. WHen i had that pain and
went to the obgyn dr they didnt do much
but look at my kidneys and liver and the
baby of course but told me next time to go
to an internal medicine hospital. They
will take a look at your gallbladder if
you let em know you think its gallbladder
related. Thats what I had to do. But
hopefully it doesnt come back. But if it
does i suggest the regular ER and not
labor and delivery from my own experience
on that.
