The ultrasound was amazing. Just one baby, exactly as far along as I thought I was (7.5 weeks), due January 7th, heart rate of 148bpm. We couldn't hear it yet, but we saw it beating away on the screen, and I felt 100% fine with that. As soon as the technician pointed it out to us, I started crying the ugly face cry, because THAT'S MY BABY. Suddenly, it went from surreal to absolutely real and holy crap, I have an actual, living baby in there with its own body and independently beating heart. I SAW IT. I could have happily laid on that table forever, just staring at the little blob on the screen. When it was over, as she was pulling the ultrasound stick thing out, she said, "say bye to baby!", and it took every ounce of grown-up in me to resist whining, "nooooooo!" At least I have pictures :)
Is there anything in the world more incredible than this? 'Cause I really don't think so. <3
