The beginning

These are the diaries of one, Baby Hafer. This yet unnamed child of ours who deserves to have his life chronicled simply because.

I am 19 weeks 2 days pregnant. I'll try come back to the beginning and make a list of the events starting from the beginning.


Okay...

Since this journal is a little late beginning, I'll list the milestones in order:




March 1 - After nearly 8 months of negatives, I got up early on Saturday to take a pregnancy test. It was several days early but I didn't want to wait. I could never wait. I was so shocked to see the very faint pink line that I didn't even say anything to Darrell for a couple of hours - I wasn't sure how to approach it. We went to the track and on the way home he asked me when I was supposed to take a test. I told him about the positive, and he was in disbelief as well. It took two more home tests and a blood test from the doctor on Monday to really convince us. We were pregnant!


The Test...it's kind of dark but you can see the faint double lines:





March 31 - My first doctor's appointment at almost exactly 8 weeks pregnant. An internal ultrasound clearly showed our little Bean growing, alive and well.

Weight - 130 lbs





April 28th - 12 Week appointment.


We heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time. It was 164 bpm.


May 30th - 16 week appointment


Another standard visit, all vitals good. Baby's heartbeat 154 bpm. We set the appointment for the anatomical ultrasound for June 26th @ 3:45 pm This is what Darrell has been waiting for. Will we get a son, or a daughter?
