A Glimpse of Baby!

So today I got to leave the house ... and go to the doctor!! Due to all the recent difficulties and to the fact that I measured a bit small, my doctor decided to have me come back later in the day for an ultrasound! 

Here is our baby girl!! Isn't she sweet?!


I've been so tense, so anxious these past couple of weeks. Things haven't been exactly easy emotionally. Any contraction could be the start of labor. Any twinge could be an indicator that something is wrong.

So I cried many, many tears of joy and relief at the sight of our healthy, beautiful, baby girl! Everything about her is just perfect, and our ultrasound technician even helped us see her HAIR floating around in there! 

This is just a reminder of why, as a pregnant mommy, we do everything that we do. Why we give up some of our favorite things, why we deal with the day-to-day discomforts that might come about, why we get up to go to the bathroom every hour of the night, why we spend days in the hospital, and then many more days glued to the couch! It's for our babies, so that they can have the best beginning in this world that we can give them.

Despite everything happening on the outside, our baby is still thriving and growing on the inside. We could not be more happy or more thankful. 

We love you baby!! Hang tight, just a little longer!
