We’ve made it to the point where it’s considered safe to share the exciting news that we are expecting a baby. Thanks to hubby’s loose lips, everyone we encounter on a day-to-day basis has already known for quite some time. So… I guess that just leaves us with a Facebook announcement – which I’m sure I’ll do at some point. I just haven't decided when.
I had two appointments back to back on Tuesday. The first was with an ultrasound technician who did my nuchal translucency scan. It took her several attempts to freeze the screen right where she needed it to be because sweet baby Duffin was having another dance party inside my belly. :) But it gave me all the more time to gaze at the screen and cry my joyful tears. She eventually got what she needed and said everything looked just as it should. [Hallelujah!]
From there, I had to give up some more of my blood (just one vile this time)… and then I headed into my second appointment. This one was with my regular doctor and it was to hear the baby’s heartbeat. ~ It was a beautiful, fast-paced whoosing sound. ~
My doctor’s eyes opened wide and she commented on how active the baby is. This makes me think I’ll probably start to feel the movement sooner rather than later.
