Our Christmas Eve Joy

introducing our little bug

WE HAD AN APPOINTMENT FOR MORE BLOOD WORK ON CHRISTMAS EVE MORNING. MY DARLING WIFE WAS HELLBENT ON ASKING FOR A SONO EVEN THOUGH OUR DOCTORS DON'T DO ONE UNTIL 7 WKS AND I WAS 6. I DIDN'T EVEN DO ANY SHAVING BECAUSE I WAS CONVINCED SHE WOULD BE TOLD TO GO SCRATCH. WELL, ME OF LITTLE FAITH WAS WRONG. WE NOT ONLY GOT TO SEE THE LITTLE BLOB THAT IS OUR BABY BUG...WE ALSO GOT TO SEE HER HEARTBEAT. SHE WAS MEASURING AT  5WKS 6 DAYS AND HER HEARTBEAT WAS STEADY. WE SAW THE OTHER STUFF TOO LIKE THE GESTATIONAL SAC AND THE YOLK SAC BUT NOTHING BEAT SEEING THE HEARTBEAT (PUN INTENDED). THE DOCTOR SAID THE HEARTBEAT WAS A LITTLE SLOW BUT THAT THE SONO WAS REALLY EARLY SO NOT TO WORRY BECAUSE BY THE NEXT ONE, THIS MONDAY THE 31ST, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE MUCH MORE AND THE HEARTBEAT WILL BE A LOT FASTER. WE STILL HAVEN'T TOLD THE KIDS, I REALLY WANT TO WAIT, BUT WE DID EACH GET TO PICK ONE TRUSTWORTHY PERSON. I GOT TO TELL MY SISTER AND SHE GOT TO TELL HER MOM. NOW MY SUPERSTITIOUS BUTT IS JUST HOPING AD PRAYING THAT I HAVEN'T JINXED ANYTHING AND ALL CONTINUES TO GO WELL.
