Baby's Running a Marathon

12 weeks exactly today. We went in to our second prenatal with our midwife; this was the big one, we were going to get to hear the heart; now we could finally find out if there was really something in there or if it was just our imagination. Morning sickness has been mild and Elly's been handling everything GREAT; couldn't ask for more (except for maybe some kind of shampoo that would make me smell good to her; heck, I'd even settle for not smelling bad haha), but even so we where stoked to find out if there was really something going on down there, or if she had a bad taste in her mouth for nothing. First thing we heard was a high pitched whining, like when a mike gets to close to the speaker, but that disappeared after our midwife moved the speaker away. Nothing but weirdness, then, we heard it. And boy was it moving!!! The kid's running a marathon in there or something. It was really neat; finally, we had some external proof that there was something there and some real interaction-even though it was just a little bit-with our baby. Can't wait till July!!!
