I've just had a listen to my babys heartbeat for the first time! I'm really happy and relieved as I haven't' felt any movement or anything, but the midwife reassured me that everything is ok. Baby sounds like a little steamtrain, and is apparantly wriggling about all over the place! Mum's convinced it's a boy, and as the old wives tale goes boys have supposed to sound like trains haven't they?
thats so exciting!! I love hearing his heartbeat - i can say that now as i found out the sex yesterday!! so everything is ok with you then? have you bought much stuff yet?
Yes everything is perfect apparantly which is so reassuring. I'm a born worrier, and as I hadn't felt anything I was totally convinced that something had gone wrong. I need to try and stop putting myself through this. I wasn't expecting to be able to listen to baby today so it was such a wonderful surprise. I have boutght a few bits already, a couple of little suits and some teddy bears from different places I have visited. I don't want to get to excited though incase I jinx the pregnancy. I really want my own doppler now! :mrgreen:
You can hire a doppler from www.mybump.com for £24.99. It comes with a big bottle of gel and is really good. I got mine within 24 hours. I can highly recommend them Glad you got to hear the heartbeat, it's amazing isn't it?
