Somebody pinch me.

I just went for my '12 week' scan.

Baby measured spot on for dates (12w4d) and the technician said everything looks 'normal'.

I seriously don't know what to feel. A huge part of me felt relief. Now, I feel worried again as I feel like I have so much to lose now. The baby was kicking its legs, rolling around and had all of its organs in place. I love the baby so much and this feeling overwhelms me so much that at times I cry because of the love I feel for him/her.

It's funny, because I know some people can find out the sex at this scan but it didn't even occur to me to ask. I don't care if the baby is a boy or girl,  I just want them to be safe and healthy.

  2. Such good news Manda. I am so so so so so so so happy for you. You are seriously on my mind everyday. I am praying for this baby to stick and I agree, each day is bitter sweet. Sweet because there could be such joy and bitter because there is risk for so much hurt.

    I am here possum, holding your hand, holding on with you. I so hope that in a few months you will have a beautiful healthy baby in your arms.

  5. :o) Wonderful,wonderful, wonderful news.

    I can't imagine that anything will stop you worrying for the entire pregnancy (all 40 weeks of it!!!) but then that is partly due to life experience and partly due to being a Mum!

    Don't worry, as soon as this little miracle is born and in your arms you'll have a whole new set of worries to fill your days but with every worry is an equally sweet moment of knowing and loving that beautiful little bundle of yours.

    You're almsot there, you're just a blink away from having that perfectly normal little bub in your arms. And isn't it funny that a word like "normal" could be such music to your ears!

    So happy for you and can't wait to see what a beautiful little bubby you have growing away nice and strong in there.

    Love Krissy xo

  10. I am so happy for you Manda. Congratulations hun.

    Lookng forward to hearing about the next 6 months and more!

    While I can't understand completely what you have gone through to get this much longed for bub I have had several MC's so can completely sympathise with the anxiety you are having in worrying about everything being ok. This worry and stress will never stop, even once bub arrives, the most important part is to learn to let the enjoyment and happiness take precedence :)
