Just had to share....I heard our little 13 week baby's heartbeat at my appointment yesterday!! I can't believe how wonderful that sound is every time I hear it!

Thank you, all you wonderful ladies here, for your prayers...know that I pray for all your intentions daily, and there have been so many needs...God bless you all.
Angela

That is wonderful news, Angela.    It is such an awesome moment to hear that little heart beat for the first time. My prayers are with you and your baby. Say a pray for me, please. I go in Thursday afternoon for a 20 week sonogram and am a bit nervous.

Ah, a little "sound of music", huh?
...these are a few of my favorite things...

Thanks, Cay! This has me smiling! It is so true! And I wanted to thank you all for your sweet responses and prayers. And Katherine, I am keeping you in prayer for your sonogram. Please let us know how it all comes out!


We haven't told any family yet. There probably won't be too much grumbling to our faces, but no one gets excited at #6 like all my wonderful Catholic friends and moms!! God bless you all - you're such a wonderful "family" to have!

Just popping in again to say thanks for the prayers! I heard the heartbeat again at my last appointment. It still sounds soooo great!

Becky, I remember being at 8 weeks, hardly believing I was pregnant! I'm at 17 weeks now; seemingly past the worst of morning sickness, etc. Hope you are feeling well!

Thanks again, all you wonderful women!
God bless,
Angela

P.S. All the family knows now, but no one is as happy for us as my wonderful Catholic friends! Thanks for that!
