I'm pregnant, but it's not mine!: 8w4d

We're getting closer to the end of the first trimester, just a few more weeks! I had an ultrasound yesterday and here's the little bean! Look how much it's grown!

Timeline

*Disclaimer* Usually the match meeting is within 2 weeks after profiles are approved by both the surrogate and IP's. However, my IP's were in the process of having a baby and had some false labor scares, so our meeting got re-scheduled a couple times :)
