Sonograms, etc.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009

We're so lucky to have such great prenatal care. Already baby has had four sonograms -- 6 weeks, 7 weeks, 9 weeks and 10.

Baby is growing exponentially, from 2 mm at the first sono to 40.3 at the last one on Tuesday, Nov. 17. Seeing that beautiful little heart pumping away with such vigor is a sight unmatched by any other.

And while exciting, the experience thus far has been nothing short of terrifying. Our fears, we're afraid, won't subside until we can hold baby in our arms, him or her staring back at us. With each passing day we get closer to that reality. We'll just have to be patient in the meantime.

Jennifer has been such a trooper with Brent giving her Lovenox shots each and every night in her side. It's going to be a long road in that regard, too.

We've slowly started telling folks the news and will tell the entire world with our Facebook status updates in a few days. The early response has been so overwhelming. Baby is so loved by so many people already, smothered in prayers and good thoughts.
