Thanks for the congratulations everyone. I have calmed down a bit now, thank goodness. Have less than an hour to go in work too and I haven't exactly been productive this afternoon!
Get ready for a mammoth post...
Well, from last night I was a nervous wreck, I was awake half the night fretting and then when my alarm went off this morning I really didn't want to get out of bed. We headed to the hospital and were waiting about 40 minutes and I was getting more and more panicky when I noticed one of the midwives was the same midwife who looked after me in the delivery suit last year after dd's delivery. Of course this triggered memories and I lost it, I couldn't hold back the tears because I was just so anxious and emotional. I was called pretty quickly after that to go down for a quick scan with a midwife. As I got up on the bed she asked what number baby was it, I said number 2 but my first was stillborn last year, cue more tears, and not just a few wee drips, these were horrible snotty sobs! So I calmed myself down and she started to scan, and the first thing we saw was baby waving at us 
We heard a good clear, strong heartbeat too, of course more tears.... 
are you sensing a theme?! Anyway I was then sent to another midwife for my booking in appointment, and it was the midwife I recognised from last year. Well, that set me off again! With her being my midwife it was the best thing ever, I don't know if any of you remember me being anxious about going through all the details of my dd with a stranger? But with that midwife doing it, it was awesome, such a comfort. She even remembered my dd's name and the things we had talked about last year. The booking in took forever, as it does, mainly because we were having the craic too which was lovely and really put me at ease. I finished up with her and was sent back to the waiting area to wait and see my consultant. DH and I went in for the scan and everything was perfect! Baby was dancing about like a mad thing, really active, and really clear heartbeat. My consultant took all the measurements and everything is as it should be. He flicked the scanner onto 3d mode too which was pretty cool and I have a few pics from that too. He also measured the nuchal fold and checked for the nasal bone, which isn't standard practice in Northern Ireland, and both were fine!!
My next appointment will be at 16 weeks which will be a big scan. He is going to do an analysis of all the bones to check how they are forming and growing. By that stage we should know if this baby is going to be ok. So my next countdown is to the 9th July and then I will hopefully be able to breath a huge sigh of relief.
I feel so fortunate to have my consultant and be able to get the standard of care that I am getting on the NHS. It is such a comfort.
I am sorry for the me, me, me post. I will name check later!
