We’re still in the game, it (he? she? baby?) is there & alive (’alive & kicking’ as the sonographer said seconds after starting the scan), it wouldn’t keep still.

They’ve rather arbitrarily brought my due date forward to the 24th, which makes me 13 weeks and a day today (just like that!) - baby is well over a week ahead.

I listen to the heart beating with my doppler and start to think ‘Could this happen? Could it really happen?’
