We heard our baby's heartbeat today! I was so anxious that we wouldn't get to hear it, but as soon as she put the doppler on it was right there. 160bpm, right where it is supposed to be. She confirmed that my uterus has 'popped' up and we can now feel it. My clothes are DEFINITELY fitting tighter and different. My smaller pants and basically all my summer clothes don't really fit my bloated belly. I can't wait to have an actual baby belly and not just be bloated and feeling like a fatty! Eli and I can see it, but in my regular clothes most people honestly wouldn't notice- or at least not enough to dare ask and be wrong! Ha. (Sidenote: this has happened to me more times than I like to admit, and as mortifying as it has been for me to tell them I was in fact not pregnant, I think the other people were feeling pretty embarassed as well.)
It was a great day, even though I am still having a lot of nausea it is so cool and weird and unbelievable that I actually do have a little baby inside of me. At this point she or he is about the size of a strawberry and will soon be about the size of a lime.
