hi there, had mt 16 wk check earlier, & everything is A ok!! got to hear the heartbeat-very strong too! the mw found the beating of the placenta first (didn't even know the placenta had its own!) then she found my heartbeat, but she said she needed to get round babys shoulders to find his/her heartbeat & there it was!
a lovely sound i could have listened to all day long.
didn't have any blood taken as my chances of abnormalities from the scan (12 wk) were so low that she doesn't need to test aswell.
only downside is here you don't get another mw appointment till you are 28 weeks!! thats not till june for me.
sounds like most of you are having girls, so mine is prob a boy!! not finding out at scan though, found out with my other 2 & want a surprise this time! (i think)
