We got in the room for the sonogram and told Mike that this might be all or nothing. I didn't think I could go through it again. The emotional wear and tear with IVF is more than I ever imagined it would be. I was crying before the sonogram even started. And then, thankfully, the awesome technician (hope that's the right word for her job) who was giving me the sonogram (and had been through every other one with me), mercifully and quickly said, "I see a heartbeat." I immediately started crying. Could it be true? Was God's answer to my prayer finally "yes" instead of "no" or "wait"? Then she saw the second heartbeat. She turned the monitor so we could see those precious little squishies on the screen. While she finished doing her measuring of the babies, I heard Mike's cell phone start making noise. Yep, he was texting a bunch of people the exciting news. TWO HEARTBEATS!!!
Cloud 9. That is where I was. Beaming. Excited. Thrilled that God had answered our prayers. We decided to wait until the next day to make it "facebook public". After all, what better thing to be thankful for than the fact that God had blessed us with the privilege of seeing our two babies' heartbeats?
