Heartbeat at home

Yesterday I got a call from my midwife's office- they had to cancel my appointment for this coming Monday. I was really looking forward to hearing the heartbeat before going on vacation next week so I called my cousin who works at the hospital. She was able to bring home a doppler for us to hear heartbeat! I was ecstatic all day and couldn't wait until she got home. Scott and I went over her house and she kindly tried to find the heartbeat for about 30 mins (Scott and I gave it a try too!) and all we could pick up was my pulse. I was trying not to let it freak me out and she said we could take it home for the night and try it again later. So when we got home I layed on the couch and Scott found it within 5 mins! We timed it and it was beating in the 140's. It was so amazing. I taped it on my digital camera and think I've watched and listened to this video a dozen times already!!!!! I simply CANNOT wait to get my 20 week sonogram and see him! (and confirm its a him). I am so glad Scott and I got to experience this together at our home and most of all get it on tape!
