Meet Baby Bloom *7 weeks* - 1st Scan...

So it was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen :) We arrived at our scan and had to wait over and hour to see the Dr - the nurse weighed me, I gave a urine sample and was then told to undress and wait in the scan room :) Eventually my darling FS arrived in the scan room congratulating us on the awesome news - He was over the moon and so happy that this has finally happened. After all we have been through to get here *sigh* its been hectic - but looking back its all worth it - every minute of it!! This feeling - nothing can compare to this feeling - absolute happiness, joy!

It was like time was standing still - cause all I wanted was to see our baby ... and everything just seemed to take forever!

Eventually he scanned me and there we saw this precious little gem...as perfect as ever! He quickly scanned around to see if there were more then 1 - which I knew in my heart - there was only one :) Then I asked, "Doc do you think we will be able to hear a heart beat?" and he replied " Yes of course we will hear a heart beat" :) So he placed the scanner in place and the next thing you heard this beautiful sound echoing through the room - the little one has a strong heartbeat and everything is looking amazing! 130 bpm :)

My DH was smiling from ear to ear - he was so excited for this - and carries his scan picture in his jacket wherever he goes!

The nausea is getting worse by the day...and the tiredness has not subsided at all... its the joys of having a little person growing at such a rapid rate at this stage! Wow I can't believe it - still - I have so so much happiness in my heart!
