There is a heartbeat!

Amos and I had the best day yesterday because we got to hear our sweet baby's heartbeat. After a difficult first appointment (not too difficult, but I had to do a lot of things I don't like to do that aren't very comfortable), it was so awesome to hear our baby's heart.

I had been nervous for weeks now that for some reason we wouldn't be able to hear the heartbeat. It was a growing area for my faith, but of course God was good! I kind of wanted to take pictures or something so I could remember the first time, but it happened so quickly and I wasn't dressed too modestly. :) She was listening for the hearbeat and couldn't find it right away. After she found mine she kept looking and finally heard it. She turned it up so Amos could hear it. What an amazing, awesome thing to hear. I wish I could of listened for more time, but was so thankful to be able to hear that. I'm still floating.....

So that was fun. I'm beginning to show more I think... not that I should be yet.... but it's just happening and that's okay. Bring it on, stretch marks and all.

I have another appointment next month when I can meet another midwife. I don't get to choose which of the four midwives they have. Whoever is on call that night or day will be the lucky one. The appointment after that will be our first sonogram. We won't be finding out what it is but at least we can see it. So exciting.

Until next time....
