I had a prenatal appt. this afternoon and after 5 very long agonizing minutes we finally were able to hear the baby's heartbeat! Once we finally found it was strong and steady but up to that point all three of us (me, dh and my dear friend Sharon- who is also a CRNP and does my prenatals) were starting to get a bit worried.

But we're doing the happy dance now...and I thought I would share my joy.

God bless,

What wonderful news, Michele! How are you feeling? Is your nausea gone, yet? You are out of your first trimester, already, aren't you?

Praise God. So good to hear. After your hectic weekend travel and stay in our hot dry climate I was worreid about you anyway and we would have just been so heartbroken if anything was wrong.

How wonderful! I get choked up just thinking about it. I love watching my children's eyes light up when they hear the baby's heartbeat...

Love,

Sick as a dog!   

And so thankful and grateful to God for it!



Was there an announcement I missed??? If not, this needs to be moved to a proper congratulations thread . If so, someone please direct me to the thread!

No, Elizabeth, I just added the baby to my signature yesterday...I had my doctor's appt. last week and feel brave enough to start telling...everything looked great, strong heartbeat and good measurements...So relieved to see it after our miscarriage earlier this year. Thanks for the congrats! And sorry to divert from your GREAT news, Michele!!
