Huge relief at 10 weeks

I've been really anxious because I had a missed miscarriage last fall with no signs that we had lost the baby for many weeks. I'm lucky in that my new practice (a midwife) really validates my feelings and invited me to come in for a quick pocket Doppler scan any time I feel nervous. Got to see my bean today, and it was wiggling all over! Also got to hear the heartbeat (in the 160s). I had a nightmare last night about having lost the baby and this was a huge huge relief. Not as detailed as an ultrasound proper but it is so nice to have this option. I love this little bean so much already!!
