Today was a big day for our little family. We got to see our little poppyseed. I have wanted this day to come more then anything so I could make sure poppyseed was growing nice and fine. Last night I was so nervous, my stomach was doing summersalts.
This morning when I woke, I wasnt too bad. It wasnt until we set off for the hospital that I started to worry again. I was scared there would be nothing there or if there was something would be wrong. After all we went through I just couldnt see this being straight forward.
When we went into the U/S room she turned the monitor away so the ultra sound tech could make sure everything was okay first. Mia was asking lots of questions at this point. Wanting to know what the gel was being put on mummy for, what the wand was for etc. The tech was lovely and was explaning to her what she was doing. After a couple of minutes the monitor was turned around and I got to see our miracal baby - our poppyseed for the first time. My heart started racing and tears filled my eyes. I couldnt help it. I cried. I was overcome with five thousand diffrent emotions at once.
Our baby at 10 weeks 4 days.
Our due date is March the first on notes and what the dr's go by, but according to the ultrasound tech she said the baby is measuring 10 weeks 3 days. Its only one day so its not a big thing to be worried about.
After the ultra sound I was given a date for my 20 week scan - October 19th (8 days before Mia's 4th Birthday!), Was also given a date for my glucose tolorrence test - December 13th (I will be 28 weeks then) and also a date to come back and see the consultant to discuss my labouring wishes- 6th Febuary.
I have also felt very bloated these past few weeks, I took a belly picture 4 days ago when I was 10 wks exactly. I am feeling pretty massive as the clothes I shrunk into are starting not to fit me around my waist. I feel like I am wearing clothes that make me look like a tramp. Roll on pay day and I am getting some new clothes I can feel comftable in again!!
My baby bump at 10 weeks.
