We had our first ultrasound on June 12th and got to see Baby Bell for the first time. The whole appointment took less than 15 minutes, but so much happened! First we got to hear the baby's heartbeat - 157 beats per minute. It took a few tries before I could actually hear the heartbeat because I kept laughing every time I heard something. My laughs would cause her to loose the heartbeat. After four to five tries, I finally calmed myself down and was able to hear the little beats. A few tears were definitely shed as the reality of being a mom started to set in.
After hearing the heartbeat, we were able to actually see the baby on the big screen. The baby was so active - rolling around, jumping, punching, and kicking. It was so awesome to be able to see the baby while it was awake and having fun! The baby measured 10.4cm, which was right on track with our due date of December 18th.
Here are the photos we got to take home with us...
