We heard the heartbeat!!!!!!

We had our 2nd OB appointment on Friday and got to hear the baby's heartbeat!! It was the best thing I have ever heard. To top it off, I look over at Ben sitting next to me and he is smiling ear to ear. Dr Maxwell said the heartbeat sounded great and was at an amazing 170bmp - we think it's a girl!!!!

Here's our baby's development for this week:

Your baby is now 60 to 65 millimeters long or about two and a half inches long, and weighs about 14 grams. He or she has the ability to swallow and absorb and discharge fluids. Hands, now complete, are growing fingernails. Even tooth buds are appearing. Your baby's face now has a distinctly human appearance. The amniotic sac contains about 50 cubic centimeters of fluid (one and one half ounces). This week, your placenta takes over the important task of hormone production
