As a first time mother I have to say that I found all of my trips to the hospital terrifying, and of course none more so than the big day itself! Looking back though, although I was always nervous I can remember being quite excited about my second scan. I was about 21 weeks pregnant so I had adjusted to the idea of being pregnant.

I was used to my bump and I had started to feel like I really had a baby in there. Although I was of course worried about what the scan would show up, I knew in my heart of hearts that everything would be ok. The first scan had been absolutely fine and for most fortunate people, the five month scan didn’t show anything too worrying up. Yes I was nervous, but this was counter balanced by the prospect of seeing my child again.

The three month scan was wonderful, but I was so excited to think that I would be seeing someone a bit bigger, and therefore a bit more visible! I wasn’t disappointed when it came to it either. I was hooked up to the baby monitor and once the nurse had found the right spot with the sonogram, I could see my little darling kicking away in there!

I was so full of emotion that I just started to cry, and the nurse held my hand and I could tell that although she spent her professional career doing this, she was moved too. It just made me so excited to meet my child.
