What an Amazing Day!

Today I went to my first doctors appointment, it was so exciting! I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. My mom went with me because John had a class for work so he couldn't make it, but we sent him a voicemail so he could hear it. Haha my mom cried. It is so surreal hearing it, I can't believe there's a baby in my belly. :) The doctor says the heartbeat was 156 beats per min, it's so cool. I guess people say the higher the heart rate the more likely it is a girl, I wonder why. Either way it's Amazing! I have to make an appointment for ultrasound next so hopefully I will have a picture to post. :)
