11 weeks!

I had my 11 wk appointment on Monday! Everything was great! Alex got to hear the heartbeat for the first time. The baby's heart was beating at 160bpm. I'm also measuring just about a little over 11wks and all my labs came back normal. It's really exciting to know this is really happening. I can't wait til the baby is a little older so we can find out what it is. I haven't been sick at all. More so just hungry all the time and drinking like a horse. My doppler should be here today so I'll have to post the heartbeat here if possible.

Thank God for little miracles :)

10 Weeks

I'm so excited! Today I had a last minute doctor's appointment. I was just a nervous wreck really. I didn't know what I was suppose to be feeling at this point or what I shouldn't be feeling. So my doctor let me come in today to just chat. I love her. She is amazing. I wouldn't trade Dr. O'Neil for any other doctor. Anyways, she asked, "You know, you're about 10 wks, we could probably hear the heartbeat, you want to try?" Of course, my eyes just lit up like fireworks and said..."yes!!!" So after a few moments, she said she thought she heard it, but kept losing it. I got nervous, but she said, "it keeps moving around!" Then, after another moment, there it was...the heartbeat....WOW. I was just completely speechless. It was the most beautiful sound I have ever heard. I smiled and thanked her so much for hearing me out and comforting my worries. Then she had to run, because she's on call tonight. That's okay, I got to hear our baby's heartbeat and that was enough to make my day. I have another appointment next Monday for my first "OB" appointment. So I'll get to hear baby's heartbeat again. Oh, what a miracle. Praise God!
