8 weeks and counting

So today I am at 8 weeks! Seems like it was just yesterday we found out we were going to be a family of 3. I went back to my ultrasound appointment on Thursday to see the blood spot had absorbed. Which I am thanking God it had! That was a big lift off my shoulders. We got to see the heartbeat again. When it flickers on the screen it just gives you such a great feeling. I can't explain it. It just feels so good to see that. The heartbeat was 154 bpm according to the doctor. Which is really good. From the week before it was 90 bpm. And he has now confirmed the due date is set for November 26. A Thanksgiving baby! But we are shooting for to be induced before then, so Mike can schedule some time off at work. Since he's new at his job he will not get any FMLA leave. So he's hoping to take a week off after the baby is born.
