Dad and I went to our first appointment on January 17th. I thought I was about six weeks pregnant, turns out I was 8 weeks and 3 days making your due date August 26th! The ultra sound tech couldn't find you at first through the belly so she had to use the "other" ultra sound and you popped right up on the screen. It's hard to describe the feeling of first seeing you. Mostly awe, excitement, nervousness, and wonder. You are the first baby I've ever seen on the ultrasound monitor. She showed us your tiny little heart beating and said it was at 178 beats per minute. You moved ever so slightly, and it was so exciting to see! The nurse practitioner gave us a bunch of information and some medicine for my (intense) nausea. They also took 5 tubes of blood which made Mama almost pass out.
Daddy, uncle Tommy, and Grandpa Bill have already been working on your room! We decided to go gray for the walls with a blue and white stripped accent wall. If you are a little man it will be accented with green and if you are a little lady it will be pink!
