Baby Matthews' first picture

February 8, 2012

The day of my first OB appointment. I was excited, nervous, and happy. I was hoping that I would either get to see the baby or hear the baby's heartbeat or both! My husband was supposed to meet me at the doctors office but he had a meeting that was 45 minutes away and wasn't able to make it. I was happy when the nurse told me that we are now just waiting on the ultrasound room! After meeting with the midwife she showed me what our baby looks like. I was so happy to finally see it.

Little Baby Matthews measuring at 8 weeks - the size of a raspberry. I love our baby already! My due date September 19, 2012! I also got to hear the baby's heartbeat. The midwife gave me a picture of that also.

It was so neat to hear the baby's heartbeat swooshing about! The midwife said it was beating at 164bpm! I can't wait for my next appointment and for Josh to be able to hear the heartbeat.
