Most Amazing Experience

We've got a heartbeat - 167 bpm!

Our NT scan went beautifully. The baby is doing well and continuing to grow as it should. Before the actual scan the Dr. mentioned that he was going to try and listen to the heartbeat with the doppler but not to get worried if he couldn't hear it because I'm still pretty early. As it turns out, we heard it right away! It was amazing when the rapid "thud, thud, thud" sound came over the doppler and the doctor looked at me and said, "Sounds like we've definitely got someone in there!". It was the most beautiful sound in the entire world :)

Then for the u/s, I got teary-eyed as soon as I saw the little peanut on the monitor. The baby didn't want to move around too much at first even though it was in an awkward position for the tech to take measurements. Luckily, after a few minutes the baby was all over the place kicking it's legs and rolling around on it's side. It was probably the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Lastly, my due date got moved up by two days and I'm now due 1-06-10!

So without any further adieu, I'd like to introduce you to Baby M. -
