We heard your heartbeat yesterday. It was the most thrilling thing ever. I never thought that a simple sound could bring such joy to me, but it did. I felt so connected with you for those few moments of hearing your heart beat strong and healthy.

I realize that I kind of suck at this keeping up with a blog thing, but at the same time, I have been scared to post and to get excited about my baby because I didn't have comformation beyond a few sticks with lines. I didn't get an ultrasound. Yesterday at 13 weeks 3 days was the first time that I knew for sure there was a living baby in my uterus, and I am now estatic.
We ordered a home doppler tonight, so that we can hear the heartbeat more and share it with friends and family. I am finally getting a *little* bump so I plan to start taking weekly belly shots this Saturday at 14 weeks.
I haven't gained any weight still, and have actually lost between 4 and 7 pounds depending on what scale I am on.

We had an ER visit this past weekend for what all symptoms say was a kidney stone, which wasn't fun.
So now, in my excited state I am going to start researching different baby products and start a list of things we need and things we want.
