Words cannot describe how happy today's doctor appointment left us. Today we saw The bean for the first time and heard his/her heartbeat! Music to my ears ;) The tech measured the beats and The Bean has a strong healthy heart beat for 7 weeks. Yes we found out I am 7 weeks, still early. Today we also decided to go public with the news. A dear friend, Shauna, told me to just go for it. That no matter what happens it is better to have the support of family & friends, and I totally agree! I will be sending this blog out to family and friends, as I will not be posting everything online & not sending out 30 different emails with each update:) This little blog is just so much easier!
So The Bean is healthy and the size of a centimeter! The small round looking thing to the bottom right attached to the baby is actually not a manatee tail (what I dubbed it), it is the yolk sac- what is feeding the baby because Lord knows Taco Bell is not the best! Hopefully this crazy carb/ greasy food phase is exactly that....a phase! You cannot see it, but you could see the heart race as it was beating- so amazing!
As I type this my stomach is talking to me- I have to run and eat before I get sick! Will post later- but for know we would like to introduce you to The Bean!
