Heartbeats

A week ago I had an early ultrasound, just to check on things. All was well, the (still unnamed) little thing measured 7w 1d and the heart was beating. I spotted it well before the technician said anything, I have become an expert at spotting heartbeats. Or the lack of the same. 

So that was a huge relief that lasted for a couple of minutes at least. That beating heart was all well and good, but it could have stopped since then. Maybe the day after. Or yesterday. Or it may stop tomorrow. The uncertainty sucks.

But on the whole I feel pretty optimistic. Most of the time.
