First Ultrasound

My first prenatal appointment was last Friday. I made the appointment the day after we found out. I never thought the day would come. I was so ready for this first ultrasound. It's not like I needed verification... BELIEVE ME, I knew I was pregnant. I just had that feeling, besides the obvious, typical symptoms (although I do have to say, I have not had any sickness whatsoever YAY!). But to see our baby moving and kicking on that screen and to hear it's heartbeat was a whole new level of realization. It made everything just that much more real. I cried and I laughed. Of course Jade was with me and my mom as well. We were all smiles leaving that office.
I was 12 weeks at this appointment and it was too early to find out the gender. We hope to get to find that out on my September visit. I'll be 20 weeks by that time. Let's just hope the baby cooperates!
