Heartbeat

Today I had an ultrasound appointment to confirm the heartbeat. The fetus is growing right on track and has a heart rate of 122. Last time I went John was worried because the amniotic sac was normal sized but the baby was barely registering because it was so small. I said that is normal size I was only 6 weeks along. This week he understood, it was much bigger. It had tripled in size in just one week. I told him normally you don't get ultrasounds this early so you don't see the process. On a side note I get all my monitoring done at a fertility clinic in Nashville and there is always a lot of people in there. Today it seemed like so many couples. Well I saw two women very upset and it broke my heart. I do not know what upset them it could have been many different things but it made me really sad to see it. I really wanted to help each and every one of them in any way that I could. I almost told them all I would carry their babies if they needed me to. I hate seeing people having to go through that and that is exactly why I do what I do.
