I had to jump out of bed and write this down, because by tomorrow my brain will be mush and I will likely forget! =)

Today, 7/16/08, was the first day that I listened to my baby's heartbeat...not because I was scared, worried, or fearful of the unknown (like every other night) - but because I just wanted to say hi.

Infertility has had me on the ground and broken... I will never be the same. Today showed me that there is hope and that I won't always be that person... negative and fearful of things unknown. I'm not promising that I won't be broken tomorrow - but today I'm optimistic and I have faith that goods thing do happen.

Trust me, it's a pretty big day in my book.

That's awesome -- I still find myself waiting for the bottom to fall out and E and E are over 4 months old now..... infertility breaks the spirit we've spent our whole life building. Can you believe my babies are already 4 months old??????/

That was a moment to document, indeed. I pray that as time goes on, there will be more and more of those days.
