Although you probably can't tell it in these pictures, there is a little tiny baby in there! Our baby! Our wonderful and perfect baby! Josh and I got to go in and hear our baby's heartbeat this morning for the first time! And boy, if it wasn't real to us before it definitely is now! What a special moment for any parent to get to hear that defining proof of a little life that you have been blessed with for the rest of your lives. A complete and total blessing from the Lord is the only way to describe it. And Josh and I are both extremely excited and abundantly happy to have this amazing gift!
So far everything is going very well in the pregnancy. My hormone and progesterone levels are very very good for where i am in the pregnancy. The baby's heartbeat registered at 154 heartbeats per minute which is also very good (normal is 130)! Today they gave us a due date of May 15th! I know time is going to fly, so we're trying to soak in every moment as it goes by. I will try my best to keep the blog up to date with any knew news as the baby grows!
