Just had the 8 week viability scan at the fertility clinic today. Due sept 3rd. Heart rate was 154 and measured at 7w5d.

This is the furthest we’ve ever been. We were so nervous to go in today after 4 previous losses all around 5-6 weeks in the last three years.

When we saw the heart beat I started to cry a little, then turned around to see my husband holding his glasses in one hand, and wiping his eyes with the other because he was bawling, which made me cry harder. I don’t see him cry very often. I’ve still been crying on and off all day. We’re so relieved, but I’m still a bit nervous. It definitely took some weight off of my shoulders to see that everything is looking good!

We’re so excited for our little one! My husband thinks it’s going to be a girl.

Please send positive vibes and fingers crossed for us! 🤞🏻 we’re so ready for baby #1!

Any Pokémon fans out there? Is it weird that it reminds me a little bit of Mew? lol

Next scan will be on the 1st with my OB, and then one more with the fertility clinic on the 5th.

Edit 1:

This morning he texted me:

He’s really into James Bond

*oh, Nora is our dog*

😂

Edit 2:

9 weeks 3 days today! Little heart is still beating. It was 156bpm today.

I cried a little today too. I think I might every time lol.

The baby even moved their little feet for us today!

Looks like a little gummy bear now 🧸💕

Next scan is with the fertility clinic on Tuesday then I have one at 11 weeks with the obg and then the 12 week scan for diagnostics.

After that, we probably won’t have as many ultrasounds.
