Katie - are you psychic?!
Just got back from my appointment - they almost missed me out because (apparently) they couldn't read the writing in the diary but ALL IS FINE! Measuring right on track and a lovely strong, fast heartbeat.
I just can't believe I've made it past eight weeks. They're still cautious, saying that of course the scan only shows what's happening today and can't predict the future, but given that both the sonographer and the midwife were debating dropping my next scan and letting me wait til the nuchal, I think I have reason to be positive.
(I asked if I could still have the intermediate scan in two weeks' time and they said yes)
Thank you all so much for your kind messages, by the way. It meant a lot to know I wasn't alone, in a strange way (obviously my DH was there, but it's nice to have other pg women rooting for me too!)
Phew. Now for a nice leisurely day... (I booked the day off work )
