First ultrasound, week 7
We had our first ultrasound today. I was so nervous. Luckily everything looks fine. Micro is 7.7mm long with a beautiful beating heart. Just as big as could be expected. Now I can start believing this will turn out ok. I'll have a second ultrasound in five weeks. Can't wait! - Sofie
