1st Ultrasound!


Today, we went for our first doctors appointment at 7:30am. The nurse said everything looked great and my blood levels (HCG and Progesterone) indicated a healthy pregnancy. Charlie asked her if there was anyway they could squeeze us in to get an ultrasound. After the ultrasound tech got in, she took us back first! It didn't take but a second to see our little baby and his/her heart beating 108 beats/minute. I started crying and Charlie was sqeezing my hand. It was the most amazing experience I have ever been through! What a little miracle! Our baby is 5 weeks/ 6 days old. We go back for another ultrasound next Monday to make sure his/her heart beat is faster and he/she has doubled in size. Can't wait to watch our little baby grow!
