On Monday I had my 12 week appointment and we heard the baby's heartbeat for the very first time! It took a minute for her to find it. At first all we heard was my slow heartbeat and some swishing noises...then all of a sudden, a fast, strong little heartbeat. 156 beats per minute. And that was our little baby, just growing away in there. It was one of the most awesome moments of my life. I was so happy and relieved to know that a) there really is a baby in there, and b) that it so far is alive and strong.
We also got to schedule the ultrasound for 20 weeks. On July 11th we will find out what we're having - I can hardly wait!
In the meantime, I am constantly poking at my abdomen trying to feel the baby and counting the days (24!) until my next doctor's appointment when I get to hear that beautiful heartbeat again.
