On December 31, 2009, we had our first ultrasound and were able to see our little "gherkin" for the first time!
It was emotional and surreal all at the same time. For the past 8 weeks, I had stressed and agonized over the health of the baby. I kept wondering if the baby was ok? Was there really a baby in there? Is there a heartbeat? Is the baby growing like it should be?
So, when we finally had the opportunity to see "gherkin" and know he/she was healthy is was the best feeling in the world. We found out that the baby is growing a few days ahead of schedule and the heart rate was a strong 169! If the old wives tale is true then we might just have a baby girl on our hands!
