Don't worry!<br><br>Its completely normal, and will show whether there's one or two babies, and you should be able to see a heart beat(s) by that stage too. It just confirms that everything is where it should be!<br><br>Congratulations.<br><br>Love<br><br>Rachel<br>x

hi Marycam!!!<br><br>You found the 'other side' then!! How exciting.<br><br>When I went for my first scan I went with a full bladder and had an external scan (jelly on the tummy one). They couldn't find a second heartbeat so I had to have an internal scan too (after having a pee, obviously!!!)<br><br>Its really exciting. We saw two black circles with a little white flicker in the middle and that is the heartbeat. Very special moment.<br><br>I bet you can't wait. Try not to get too anxious, it will soon be the 18th! Keep drinking lots of water.<br><br>I'm glad you plucked up the courage to post on this side!!<br><br>love nikola.xxx
