I had my first appointment today. There was a little scheduling issue (I was suppose to be rescheduled til tomorrow). So I didn't meet my dr. But I was able to see someone else.

They did a transvaginal ultrasound and the dr. said "there's your baby. And check this out" and she pushed a button and we got to hear the heartbeat! It was incredible!

I got teary. But didn't cry (which surprised me). I was so nervous leading up to the appt. Once we heard the heartbeat I kept repeating "I'm so happy! I'm so happy!". Dh held my hand the entire time and when we saw the baby/heard the heartbeat he squeezed my hand so tight. I looked over at him and he had the hugest smile on his face!

One of the measurements put the baby at 6w6d. The other at 7w0d. I had figured 7w1d based on FF. I think I'll go with 7w0d for now. Ok. I'm rambling.

We are both so excited and happy!!

I can't stop smiling and looking at the pictures

So I was very pleasantly surprised
