Flicker

I saw my baby’s heartbeat this morning :)  It was the coolest fucking thing ever.

I was a total wreck when we were in the room waiting for the doctor to come in.  I couldn’t stop crying and  told Hawk that I couldn’t imagine a good outcome, because I’d never gotten one before.  I didn’t know what it looked like, what it felt like.  But doctor came in, in went the wand, and right away when the sac came in to view, there was a little blob in the upper right part of the sac, with a little *flickerflickerflicker* in the middle of it.  The heartbeat.  The most beautiful sight I have ever seen.  I immediately burst into happy tears.
