Music to our ears

Is there anything better than hearing your baby's heartbeat for the first time? I don't think so :)

Yes, we have a heartbeat...according to my RE everything looks wonderful. I am measuring 5w6d and we could see the heartbeat as well as hear it (well, hearing it wasn't as clear as we would have liked, due to background noise...aka, my gas!)...it was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I let out the BIGGEST sigh. I've been up since 3am worried sick over this!

Pending my bloodwork results which we'll get around noon, everything is perfect so far. This is HUGE. We've never come this far before. We feel extremely blessed.

Between this and the Giants win yesterday, life is good :)

I am so happy for you guys. I have been a reader of Megan's blog, and I found your story through the North Jersey Nest board (I live in the Poconos, but spend plenty of time in Jersey and lurk on that board sometimes), and I have been pulling for you! A happy and healthy nine months to you...and tons of sticky baby dust!

I agree there is nothing better than that sound. I am so happy for you and Frank. About one year ago they thought I was going to have a mc and then we heard that wonderful heartbeat and it was the best day of my life. I wish you a happy and healthy 9 months.
