My Second Scan

Today was the day my second scan took place. .....to date I have really been a miserable monster......I moan and groan all the time about feeling sick. I think I have driven my family dilly with my gripes. My poor B has been an absolute superstar. He has cooked every night, made lunch every day, feed the animals twice a day ....and basically run the household whilst I slept away my morning sicknes....Thank you my B, you are my superstar... (mind you, it is your bloody fault I am in this situation...smile)

Scan went well. Our little Brat is 24.4mm with a heartrate of 169. When Dr J put up his famous Dildo Cam, our little one was swinging its arms and legs...too bloody cute. For the first time, my heart melted. This little bean inside of me is real....very real.
Dr J tells me that I am 9.5 weeks preggies...which means in another 2.5 weeks I will be out of the first trimester...wow..how quickly does time go. It feels like yesterday, I was getting all prepped for our first IVF.....
I could not get my picture of the scan, scanned nicely...so one of the girls at work took a photograph and emailed to me....xcuse the huge flash on the top...I will get my B to do another one soon.

At the bottom of the picture you will be a black sac with a smudge inside it. The bigger end of the smudge (on the left hand side) is the Brats head...

Doesn't it just blow you away and leave you speechless??? I don't think I'll ever stop being amazed by it all!! I'm so very pleased that it's all progressing so nicely. And I'm sorry to have to say this, my love - but sick is good! :-) Almost there.. YOU CAN DO IT!

Oh Bratty, that's so cute! I can make out the little arms and legs too. You won't believe the difference next time you scan. It's so awesome! Even though you don't feel too good you must really enjoy this because it goes past much too quickly.
