We had our first ultrasound yesterday. I know the picture is kind of blurry, but that's the best I could do. We got to see and hear the heartbeat, 139 bpm. It's measuring 1 cm right now. It's so crazy that this little thing inside me is just beating away already. I have to admit, I thought I'd be a lot more emotional than I was. Don't get me wrong, it was an amazing thing to see and hear, but it is still so unbelievable to me. I still can't believe it's real and that I'm actually pregnant. Maybe over the next several weeks and at our next ultrasound, it will become more real.
It's not that I don't feel like I'm pregnant, because I do. I have a significant pooch 24/7, along with a little nausea from time to time. I usually wake up around 7 feeling like I need to eat right away or I'm going to be sick. Even after I've eaten, I still feel hungry. I ate my favorite cereal yesterday and it was actually tasting gross to me. We usually eat chicken several times a week, but I've had no appetite for that. Now, Chili's Southwestern Egg Rolls...that's a different story! YUM. It's just funny how things start to change so quickly. (I'll be 7 weeks tomorrow)
So far, everything has gone wonderfully. I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome. Yesterday, the Dr. said I hit the jackpot...put one in and got one out of it. It's like putting all your chips on red and hoping for the best. It's a gamble we took and would take again...in a heartbeat. :)
Oh...and I'm due FEBRUARY 14. So, I know who I'll be kissing on Valentines Day!
