2nd OB Appointment

Yeah!!! appointment #2... April 24th 2009- 10 weeks

We got to hear the heartbeat!!! It was soooo amazing. It didn't register that it was coming from inside me. It was so nice to have a little validation that i in fact am pregnant.

When the doctor was about to put the heart monitor thing on my belly he asked if i had something to record the sound... it dawned on me i had not prepared for this moment!! i had nothing to record my baby's first heartbeat! But i quickly realized God willing there will be another 30 weeks i get to hear a heartbeat and then a lifetime of hugs and kisses after that! Lets just say i will be much more prepared the next appointment.

We asked when we would get our 1st ultrasound and the doctor said since everything seems normal we wont get one until 19 weeks. Admittedly i was a little disappointed. Everything I read online some women are getting their 1st ultrasound at 8 weeks but on average 10-12 weeks. So needless to say I was a little worried and upset. I have to place that worry on God and trust in Him that everything will be fine. Waiting until 19 weeks will just make our 1st ultra sound that much more special... hopefully we will get to find out the sex that day also.

Not too much more to report about the 2nd ob appointment. I will say that hearing the heart beat of our beautiful babies was unlike anything i have experienced to date in my life. I can only imagine how i will feel the first time i get to see my baby!!!
