10 weeks + 5 days

We're in double digits, and it's a really nice place to be. I'm happy to have gotten further than we have in a pregnancy in a long time, with a seemingly healthy little peanut at this point in time.
Today's scan was great, a nice clear heartbeat (173-177bpm) and a baby that did a few hiccups and flailed their little limbs around... we have autonomous movement! The OB checked blood flow and we could see colour around the umbilical cord and around the placental area, so that was exciting to see.
Baby measures at exactly 10 weeks + 5 days and has grown a whole cm in week. It's now 3.8cm long! So exciting. :) 
It's not the greatest picture, but after it's little acrobatics session, it then decided to chill out in my uterus and recline like it was on a sofa. Ah, I am a happy camper right about now. Go baby go! Today there is hope nestled in amongst the nerves.
