We have a heartbeat, just one beautiful heartbeat. What an amazing day!
The scan went really well. Everything is perfect. The baby is measuring one day ahead and has a heart rate of 122bpm which they said was excellent. JBB and JourneyMan were both there and it was beautiful to share such a special moment with my boys.
I have to say, I am seriously relieved that we are not expecting twins. Until they were sure that there was only one, I hadn't let myself feel how truly afraid I was that I couldn't keep a twin pregnancy. Today I realized that there is no reason why I can't take this baby to 38 weeks, JBB went right through, my body knows what to do so as long as I take care of us both, we should be fine.
I am hoping to enjoy this pregnancy. I enjoyed being pregnant with JBB but I was so afraid. I am still determined to keep as much of the fear at bay.
Is there anything more special than seeing the beating heart of a being inside you, such a miraculous day. I'm so thankful that we have gotten this far, I so hope to hold this precious baby in my arms in May. So happy, so excited, so grateful.
This blog began as a quiet, anonymous space to work through the emotions of the biggest decisions of our lives — pursuing donor egg IVF in Thailand to build our family. It served as a space to make sense of trying to conceive, travelling abroad for treatment, and finally becoming parents. Now, years later, our story continues — not just in written form, but through The Donor Eggs Journey Podcast. We remain anonymous, out of love and respect for our children.

Yay! I am so glad everything went so well. We both had good sonos today. :)
ReplyDeleteI have a question. When doing a FET, how do they determine how far along you are in the pregnancy? Does it go from the age of the embryo, rather than the day of transfer?
I love we are pregnant together. :)
Yay, can I ask how many embryos did you transfer?
