the day we'd been waiting for...the day to see our baby. anxious and excited, we entered the waiting room. unfortunately, my OB/GYN for the last 13 years had moved to Indiana. so, not only were we meeting our new baby for the first time, but we were meeting our new doctor.
immediately, we felt comfort with Dr. Fuller. whew...she was patient with all of our questions. amazing how much you can forget in 5 years! after a 30 minuted Q&A session, we went to the Ultrasound (U/S) room to see our baby. there he/she was. tiny. unrecognizable. a blob, really. but, we could see a heartbeat! that was amazing. at only 6.5 weeks gestation, seeing a heartbeat is not a given. (see pictures)
anthony and i walked out of the office glowing. heads held high. feeling on top of the world. (honestly, we'd not discussed the baby a lot. we knew that anything could happen. we wanted to see him/her before we got our hopes up.) now, the baby was confirmed. we could finally talk about him/her. as we got into the car, anthony said, "can we talk about names?" we felt like we could talk about the future. that felt amazing.
