Thump Thump...Thump Thump

Turns out I don't have Munchausen Syndrome! We went to the doctor yesterday morning and we were totally blown away. I honestly didn't think that much would change. I would go and hear my baby's heartbeat which would be really cool. I would confirm the pregnancy (duh) and stock up on information and pre-natal vitamins. When we saw our baby's little arms and legs and it's heart pounding in its little chest it was almost more than I could handle. We just stared at the screen. I have never felt more emotions in one moment. I wasn't sure if I should laugh or cry, speak up or just let the moment stand still with my sweet baby's heartbeat as the soundtrack. I think I did all of it, at once. I don't know. It was awesome.



So, there's baby guff. (Pardon my uterus). Doesn't it look like she's holding a little clutch purse? (aka yolk sac). K says it's a briefcase. Whatev. If you look close you can see eye sockets and little arms and legs.

Isn't it a wonderful miracle from God? I mean, how does He DO that? Homechild has arms and legs, kidneys and a tongue... and is literally the size of a raspberry. I can't help but stare at this ultrasound (for hours) and imagine swaddling those legs up, kissing those little fingers and watching those little bitty eyes fall asleep for years and years. I'm in love.

Until next time,
The Guff
