Welcome to My Captured Moment, a weekly linky where I share my favourite ‘Captured Moments’ and invite you to do the same.
This week my ‘My Captured Moment’ is the very special moment that we saw our tinny baby for the first time, at our 12 week scan. It never fails to amaze me how developed they are at this stage, even though they’re only about the size of a lime.
Seeing these images and hearing the heartbeat for the first time really was a massive turning point for me. After weeks of feeling shocked and worried, I suddenly felt calm and instantly fell in love - just like I did with my two big girls.
Share your Moments
Your ‘My Captured Moment’ can be a single picture or a series of shots, new (taken this week) or old, with or without words. The idea is to simply share a moment in time you’ve captured on your camera and make sure it doesn’t go unseen. This could include vintage shots of your own childhood and beyond or a simple picture you’ve recently taken and want to ‘show off’.
How to Play Along
• Link up every Thursday to Sunday (ending at 11.55pm)
• Add my badge (or link back to my website using #MyCapturedMoment) at the bottom of your post.
• Share the love – try to comment on a few of the other posts. After all that’s what it’s all about.

Seeing your baby for the first time is so magical and I will never forget the morning I saw my girl on screen for the first time. You’re right, it’s amazing how developed they are at that stage too.
It’s so exciting!

There’s nothing more memorable and special than seeing whats inside your tummy, isn’t it? #MyCapturedMoment
Oh wow, feels like so long since we were at our scan. Such a magical moment indeed. Huge congratulations again x
This is such a precious moment. So exciting x
Ahhhh, Heledd, scan photos are so precious. What a wonderful captured moment. I am also always amazed that they are look like babies at 12 weeks. Especially as we had a scan of Little Miss H at 6 weeks and she was purely a little sac with a heartbeat at that point. It is awesome that they develop so much in such a short time. I am so so so happy for you lovely. Thanks for hosting. Hugs Mrs H xxxx
Beautiful I am so happy for you such an exciting time! xx
