Hi Lorraine. I feel a bit awkward posting scan details on this side when so many people have had disappointments or are on treatment at the moment, but you are so kind and interested that I wanted to let you know how it went. They could see one baby, which the nurse said was a normal size and looked fine, and we saw its heart beating ... it was obviously something truly amazing. The idea of twins is of course exciting but I'm actually quite relieved it's one.<br><br>Have another scan booked for 2 weeks time when it should have doubled in size. I'll just worry myself along to that one now!!<br><br>I hope you are feeling OK. I wish I had words that would really bring you some comfort but probably only you and your husband can find this together. My DH and I are only on the first step along the road, and I'm only too well aware that we're by no means out of the woods, but I had thought about what I'd do when we came to the end of all the treatment we could handle/afford - I didn't think of anything concrete and just assumed I'd have to take it one day at a time - I presume that's what you're doing right now, cos there's just no other bloomin way round it. I send you lots of love and I so wish that things had worked out differently for you.<br><br>Thinking about you - love, Jo.XXXXX<br>
How eerie was that.....I had literally just logged on with the intention of posting you and before my eyes up popped your message!!!<br><br>What a truly momentous day - you must be walking on air!<br>Oh to see that little heart beat. <br><br>I can hear your niggling worries and doubts - and I guess all the girls on the other side will tell you they are normal - but fear not there are lots of us mentally helping you carry this special one!!!!<br><br>Well its all definetly real now!!!<br><br>Huge huge congratulations, enjoy this time you've earned it!<br>Lots of love from<br>Lorraine<br>xxxx
