Moment of truth

Today was a milestone day, and to borrow a word from a dear friend, at times, I felt quite verklempt.

I think, no, I know, that we had our socks blown off in our first mat appt today. We could totally hear the heartbeat, and the ultrasound was amazing - we could make out a really distinct profile of our baby, and you could even see the heart beating!!

How humbling to know that something so amazing is happening inside of you.

I am doing well, and things are progressing the way they should be. We breathed a collective sigh of relief, and well, we have both been on cloud 9 since. JUST WOWZERS!!!!

strange fact: they start counting your weeks from the first day of your last period... which is about 2 weeks before you actually conceive, so you probably were right all along!
