Bambino at 8 weeks + 6 days š¤
Ever wondered what youāre actually looking at on an early pregnancy ultrasound?
At 6 weeks, we can often see a tiny baby, a little heartbeat flickering away and the yolk sac (that little Polo mint-looking structure next to baby!).
By almost 9 weeks, Bambino is significantly bigger than the yolk sac, the head and body are becoming more defined, and we can start to identify the umbilical cord more clearly.
Our favourite early pregnancy scan timeline?
We love scanning at 6 weeks for that first little glimpse, followed by another scan between late 8 weeks and 10 weeks to see just how much Bambino has grown and developed.
Itās incredible what a difference a few weeks can make š¤
