Thursday, June 28 we had our first ultrasound scheduled. I had many emotions going into this appointment. I was only 7 weeks and knew things could happen. I hate being negative, but I wanted to be real with myself. We get there and my so very impatient husband is going crazy having to wait. We are finally called back to the little room. She put the jelly-like stuff over my stomach and started searching around. There it was.
Oh. My. Gosh.
Words can't describe. She pointed to the baby and then zoomed in and we watched the heart beat. She then recorded the heartbeat and we were able to faintly listen to it. I didn't burst into tears but I had a steady stream running down the sides of my face. I don't think I will ever forget that feeling.
The whole being pregnant concept was already real to me thanks to extreme fatigue and all-day sickness but seeing and hearing our baby made it super real. I was finally one of those people that had the tiny little picture of our baby!
And another set of great news- ONE heartbeat! Twins run both sides of our family so I had a few dreams the nights leading up to the appointment we were having twins.
The doctor came in and said everything looked perfect! So I would like to introduce you to our baby-
We are overwhelmed with the "Congratulations" we have received over the past two days! We know we are extremely lucky to have got pregnant so quick and everything look great now and onto the "safe-zone."
I have friends and some family that have struggled in the past and continue with infertility today and those that have lost their babies. I can't imagine- but know I am in deep prayer for you all. More now than ever.
love-
