We have a heartbeat!

All is well! By my ovulation date, I should have been 7w 3d, and bub is measuring 7w 2d so just perfect! Saw the heart flickering away on the screen! The picture wasn't very clear, as the sonographer only did an abdominal scan - but he could see enough to measure bub. These are the details on the report:

A single live embryo is present within an intra-uterine gestational sac. Normal foetal heart motion is seen at 158bpm.

The crown rump length is 1.09cm consistent with 7 weeks and 2 days gestation.

No bleeding is seen around the sac.

The right ovary appears normal. The left ovary contains a 3cm cyst, most likely of corpus luteal origin.


We went straight from the scan to Ray's Mum and told her, his sister and his niece. Then told his Dad tonight - so there's only a few to tell now from his family. But just have to wait another 13 days to tell my people (if we can still go).

Ahhhh can relax a little now *phew*. Have the 12 week ultrasound coming up at the end of this month too!
