Yesterday we had our first appointment with the OBGYN. We were hoping to get an ultrasound so we would have pictures to give to our moms on Friday, but he said it wasn’t necessary before 20 weeks so he didn’t do it. We did get to hear the baby’s heartbeat which was pretty cool and confirmed that there is in fact a little person inside me and I’m not just getting fat. Jay heard him say 157 beats per minute, I heard him say 150 — either number is good so we’re both happy.

Now we’re off to Jersey to tell our moms…
