Can you hear it?

Todays Dr. appt was very important to us; we were getting the test results for all our prenatal screenings.

During the 20 week ultrasound appt, the doctor checks the baby for any heart, kidney or growth issues. They also check to make sure that everything in my uterus is working and growing properly. In addition, we had several blood tests done to check for any genetic abnormalities (such as Down Syndrome). If the levels were to come out high, the doctor would then recommend additional testing.

Well the results came out great, the 20 wk ultrasound showed that everything was going perfectly; my uterus and the baby are growing exactly as they should. The doctor also told us that all our genetic testing came out negative, which means that we have no reason for any additional testing!

After the Doctor reviewed all the test results, she got to Deven's favorite part of each appt... hearing the heartbeat! Since my mom has been begging me over and over and over (and over) again to record it, we finally did. Here is our little Madison's heartbeat - Enjoy!! :-D
