What an experience! I've been nauseous, lost my appetite, and more tired than I ever thought possible—but I'm loving every minute of it! Jesse's been so supportive. He makes "us" (baby and me) breakfast, lunch, and snacks every day to ensure we're eating healthy. He does the grocery shopping, cleans our home, and even personally delivers flowers to me at work—all to keep us stress-free, happy, and rested.
Today, we had our second ultrasound. Again, we were counting down the days until we could see our baby. In the full body ultrasound, Baby Shirley's head is near the yolk sac with little arm buds sprouting below. As Jesse says, Baby Shirley has a Cabbage Patch doll's head with a gummi bear's body.

Then, the most amazing thing happened. We could hear the heartbeat! Words cannot describe the overwhelming emotions and the instant unconditional love that comes from hearing the baby's heartbeat for the first time.
