The most beautiful image I have ever seen



Today we saw our baby for the first time. According to the doctor and going by my last month's period (I've been counting from the IUI, so I'm a couple days ahead) we are 5 weeks 5 days and our due date is May 20th, 2012. The ultrasound was wonderful and we got to keep a picture of the mini muffin too. Steve got to see the baby first while the tech took all the measurements. He asked "What is that little fluttering?" I gasped because I knew it was the heartbeat! Such a wonderful moment. We totally high-fived! The baby is measuring perfectly at 5w5d with a heartbeat of 100 (also perfect). We get to go back in three weeks for another ultrasound and then we should graduate to a regular OB! I feel so blessed.

Congratulations, that's awesome!

I'll never forgot our first ultrasound after positive betas. My husband cried, he was so happy. (Even when we found out it was twins! LOL)
