So I had my first appointment with my Dr. today and she confirmed that I am in fact 9 weeks along and my due date is still set for November 7th :) I went in hopes of getting an ultrasound in and possibly a heartbeat (I wasn't sure if it was developed enough yet or not). I was blessed with both :) Words cannot express the overwhelming joy you feel when you see our baby moving around on the screen for the first time. It becomes so real at that moment. None of the fetal development pictures fit what I saw on the screen. None of the words used to describe your baby and it's developmental stage seemed to fit either. It was a little human being moving around inside my tummy and suddenly none of the other descriptions fit or mattered. All that mattered was Bob and I had created life. With a little bit of him and a little bit of me, together God blessed us with a beautiful baby :) I want to use that for the announcements ;) Perfect little head, perfect little body, complete with 2 arms waving around as if to say hello, and 2 little legs which I will feel kicking me soon enough just to remind me that he/she is there :) Of course I lost it when I saw the fluttering heartbeat in it's tiny little chest, and then to hear it! OMG beating so rapidly, it was simply amazing :) The miracle of life is something to be in awe and amazed by. How could you not believe in God?!? I'm just so happy He has chosen to bless us at this point in our lives. There's always the feeling of are we ready or not? But we are totally ready. No fears, no worries, no stress, no concern. I know it's all in God's hands and in 7 months time the baby will be in our hands :)
