epic fail....

I feel like an epic failure right now.. smh...

i purchased a fetal heart doppler on ebay a few weeks ago and have been religiously listening to my little one's heartbeat... or so i thought...

turns out, im a complete bone head and the heartbeat i was listening to was my own! EPIC FAIL! the only reason i found out it was mine and not the baby's is because i was lurking on a forum and came across a post where a girl asked why she couldnt find the heartbeat and the replies said that the heartbeat was found above the pubic bone and it was between 130-180 bpm... hmmm... i started scratching my head because i kept having readings of 98-100 bpm on the doppler... so i got out my trusty doppler and went to work! needless to say i found my little man at a healthy 168bpm!

sorry for the crappy quality, its a difficult to record and use the doppler simultaneously...

i feel a ton better now that i know where he is and how to find the heartbeat!

It's a .....

Yesterday we had our 12w5d appointment! our baby was measuring right on schedule! we saw 10 toes and 10 fingers, it was amazing. I wish the ultrasound tech snapped a photo of them but she didnt since baby was maneuvering a lot. anyway, even though it was so early, we got our gender determination done! we are having a little boy!!! oh my... a boy... i'm going to have a son!! unbelievable!!!
