Houston...

we have a heartbeat! Woot!

We had our first ultrasound today. It's amazing how nervous you can get before it actually happens. So many crazy things can go through your mind..."what if there's no hb?" "what if there's more than one?" or my favorite (asked by Mike two minutes before it began)..."what if it's just the hernia?" Umm...so that one I was fairly certain I knew the answer to -- there was no way that an inguinal hernia gave me a positive pregnancy test!

Pumpkin was measuring exactly 6 weeks, 0 days and looked like an engagement ring inside my belly. Heartbeat was 102 bpm (which is perfect (avg is 90-110 bpm)) and sounded so wonderful! I can't wait til we get to hear it again during the 1st Trimester Screening in 6 weeks.
