Hi, lovelies! Just a little update. After an emotional wait I had my scan today. I am 7 weeks 5 days pregnant. My baby's heart beat is good, size is good. They said all is looking good. So excited but at the same time anxious now to get to the next stage - the 12 week safe zone!! Enjoying this moment and hoping that the journey continues positive and healthy X

That is so awesome to hear! The waiting during the first trimester is harder than I ever thought it would be, so I completely understand. Hope everything continues to go smoothly :)

Oh, that's truth people keep on saying the early pregnancy symptoms are going to boost out in 7-8 weeks!! Hardly could I believe it, but now surviving mine I would absolutely agree with them.
A week after transfer it used to be sharp twinges on both sides, dull aches and heaviness. Something caused me lots of muscle pulling pain when I got up or turn suddenly. I felt a little bit cramping but not too much. They had been going on a few days. I was also dealing with nausea and dizziness from time to time. Now the symptoms are completely different. The tiredness and nausea you get then is something else. Some women never get symptoms and each pregnancy is different. It's difficult to relax during pregnancy, you go from milestone to milestone. It definitely gets a little easier as you progress but irrational thoughts do seem to creep in along the way...
Thanks for reading X
