Woosh, Woosh, Woosh, Woosh
I had a doctor's appointment yesterday afternoon to check and see how the baby is doing. We knew we'd get to hear the heartbeat through doppler, but we didn't expect to get an ultrasound. But we got into the room and the doctor came in and turned on the machine, put the thingy on my belly and instantly we saw our baby. It was so very cool. The doctor said everything looked good. He showed us where the heart was beating and it actually looked like a real heart. He maginified the sound and we could hear the little heart wooshing away. The doctor said it sounded really strong and that the baby must be sleeping because sometimes you can see them moving around, but ours was still. I didn't think to ask for a picture. We haven't got one yet, but there's not much to really look at yet. It still looks really small and blob-like. Once it gets it's features we will get a picture. We prayed and thanked Him for our wonderful gift.
