Houston, We Have A Heartbeat

This was certainly an interesting weekend. I spent all of Sunday morning and part of the afternoon in the labor and delivery unit at the local hospital. I had a burning cramping sensation Saturday night and woke up with it Sunday morning. After hemming and hawing, I decided it would be best to have it checked out. The doctor at Urgent Care enthusiastically told me I had won a trip to the ER. Awesome. Not. My husband met me in the ER and I was taken upstairs to labor and delivery to have my insides examined. After some pulling and some pushing, it was determined nothing was wrong other than constipation. Awesome. Not. Well, sort of. Awesome the baby is still safe in place, not because, well, constipation is just not awesome. We WERE able to hear the peanut's heartbeat. Very Awesome. I think I actually giggled when I heard it.

I shared the news with our friends at large last night and my coworkers this morning. The news is officially out. We welcome Week 10 with another leap forward.
