We have a heartbeat!

edited December 2013 in Pregnant after IF
There is one perfect peanut hanging out in there!  The u/s tech didn't give me the heart rate, but my OB said she only notates it on early u/s if it is abnormal, so it must be good.  Baby is measuring exactly on target at 7w4d.  We are ecstatic to have made it to this point!
