The 12 week scan

Well today has finally arrived and 2.30 took forever to get here.  We had been warned that today's scan would take at least 2 hours to do all the measurements.  The killer is the litre of water I was told to drink an hour beforehand.

I was such a bundle of nerves the closer we got to the sonography place.  My heart was racing and I was shaking like a leaf by the time we actually got in to the room to lie down. 

As soon as I saw the 3 little dears though I relaxed and the relief and happy tears set in.  All 3 babies are doing brilliantly and came back as all having a low risk for Downs Syndrome.  I nearly left out the best part.  The scan only took an hour as all 3 babies were on their best behaviour and were in perfect positions.  Hopefully a sign of things to come?

This weekend we are off on a family get away to the beach which will be so lovely and relaxing.  We are staying in a beach house with Mr Tans family, luckily we are all close and get along well too.  So it definitely won't be a drag.


I already look about 6 months pregnant and have been needing to wear maternity clothes for the past 2 weeks.  I will take a picture to show you all soon.  But for now are some happy snaps from today.  

Ok so I can't work out how to get the pictures in the right order but the first pic os of Triplets A and C
The second is a group shot and last but not least is Triplet B
