10 Weeks!

I can't get enough: orange juice

Last week we: had our first midwife appointment at The Midwife Center got to hear the baby's heartbeat through Doppler! It was pretty much the coolest experience ever! We were told we only had about a 50/50 chance of hearing it this early and there was no reason to worry if we didn't but I was really hoping we would. It took forever for the midwife to find our little one but I'm so glad she kept looking. I guess she heard it a few times before getting a good shot at it because she kept saying, "oh did you hear that?!" If you've never heard Doppler on a prego belly before, let me tell you, there's all kinds of whooshy sounds going on. I didn't know what she was listening for until she found it at last and then it was pure magic!

My biggest complaint: I'm so tired and thirsty!

I really miss: still lunch meat.

Mr is a shining star: I was so nervous at our first midwife appointment and Mr was amazing. Totally calm and supportive and exactly what I needed. So far everything looks good but we do have a few tests to get done based on family history and he definitely helped me stay level-headed about all of it.

What I'm reading: We borrowed this book from The Midwife Center. Seems pretty cute but I haven't gotten far in it yet. More on this later.
