Heard Baby's Heartbeat for the First Time
First time we heard the heart beat with the doctor's dolper. But not the first time we have seen Baby H. My obgyn has a little hand held ultrasound thing, that looks like a fancy iphone. Baby's heart beat for 15w6d was 140! Perfect!! So happy!

Started Wearing Maternity Clothes
Had to go out and get my first pair of maternity jeans. My regular ones wont due up anymore and they are supper uncomfortable and even painful if I do, so its maxi skirts, sweats and my one pair of maternity pants. :)

Announced pregnancy to the world
We wanted to let the world know we were pregnant and the easiest way was to put an "announcement" on facebook, that way ppl would find out at their own pace and I wouldn't get in trouble for telling others first. So it was a picture of my daughter holding a board with the announcement. :) It was so encouraging to see so many positive encouragements.

First Prenatal Appointment
Wasn't very exciting, got my info updated, confirmed my due date. Went for lots of blood work. Then right at the end my obgyn asked if I wanted to try and find baby's heart! UMM YES!!! He told me that because I was still really early along and baby is still small and their in office ultrasound isn't very strong, but nope! There it was! Strong and steady and full of life! It was so amazing! The first heart beat we have found since my 2 yr old! My doc was so excited! And I cried! :) A great first doc apt!

Announced Pregnancy to Family
We have family all over, and so no one would be hurt for not being the first to know. So we sent an email with a picture, no words no explanations. We wanted to see if they could figure it out! :) They did and were very excited, and are very grateful for their support and prayer!

First Positive Pregnancy Test
It was a full day of waiting to see if AF would show up, she didn't, and I had a few prego symptoms. So the next morning first thing I took a test, I had my timer for 2 min, but the anxiety was too much, the disappointment of a negative and the mixed emotions for a positive was overwhelming, so I pulled my husband out of bed and pulled him to the bathroom,
I asked him "what do you see?"
Him "You can't see that?"
Me "No, I haven't looked yet!"
Him, looked at me then looked at the test then back and said "That's one strong positive!!" I grabbed the test looked, then shrieked and cried and we laughed and hugged and then prayed for this child to be healthy and strong and safe. :) It was a very special moment my husband and I could share together.
