On Friday, September 12, 2008, we got some exciting news. With the help of a Home Pregnancy Test and some strange signals from my body in the weeks prior, our suspicions were confirmed--we are going to have a baby!
We had our first sonogram on October 1, 2008. Our baby was .7cm long and had a heart rate of 119 beats per minute, which we saw on the sonogram but did not hear. Here's our first photo of Baby Upshaw!
On November 12, 2008, we got to hear the heartbeat! It was about 156 beats per minute. The baby even moved around a few times while we were listening, and we heard the swooshing of his/her movements. It was fascinating and nothing less than amazing!
