Baby’s Heartbeat
What a day it has been!
April and I went about an hour south to the Marshfield Clinic for her first doctor’s appointment. Up until now it hasn’t seemed very real to me that we are going to be parents. But when we heard our baby’s heartbeat for the first time, it really hit me! The little heart was racing at 152 beats per minute!
Everything seems to be normal and on track. April is due sometime between April 10th and April 13th (depending which health care provider we ask ...)
After we answered all of the family history questions, the midwife performed an ultrasound. It was incredible to see the baby’s heart pumping and we even saw it move around.
You are even able to see that the baby’s fingers are forming.
Our midwife said that she didn’t think that the baby was sucking its thumb, but it almost looks that way!
