Nick and I went to our first ultrasound today. I am exactly 6 weeks and 6 days today. My doctor wanted me to have an early ultrasound to monitor how things are progressing. Our baby has an HEARTBEAT!!!! The baby's heart is pumping at an amazing 122 BPM. Anything over 90 is considered a good heartbeat. Oh and "our little bean" is measuring at 5mm which is the size of a grain of rice. Doctor said everything was looking good as far as she can tell. Its just going to be a waiting game.
Today Nick and I got a chance to see what we did not get to see with either of our other two babies. It was such a relief and an amazing thing to watch. Unfortunately we did not get to HEAR the baby's heartbeat, because the baby is to small for the sound to pick up. Thanking God for his "Miracles" whether or not we ever get to meet them.
While pulling into the doctors office Nick and I heard the song by Casting Crowns, "Praise you in this Storm." We both kind of looked at each other and had an uneasy feeling about the irony of the timing of that song playing. I still cannot listen to that song and not cry. Nick and I think of our two babies we've lost everytime we hear that song. I asked Nick if he thought God was trying to tell us something. We were already a nervous wreck about the whole appointment. Last time we went to our first ultrasound the baby did not have a heartbeat.
I pray to God everyday:
*For Our Two Angel Babies in Heaven
*thanking Him for blessing us with another baby
*For a healthy baby
*and a healthy Momma (me)
