And the magic number is......

145!!!! That's right, 145 beats per minute! Our last ultrasound showed a heartbeat of 64bpm, a very slow heartbeat for our little tadpole. While we knew that it was most likely due to the fact that our ultrasound was really early, we were a little worried none-the-less. Anyway, yesterday's worry was today's relief!!!!!! 145 is a great heartbeat for the age of the baby. We also found out that our little tadpole/alien is a little over 11 millimeters long! That's about the size of a cherry! We are also including pictures of our very handsome (or pretty) baby Fort. As for a due date...September 5th!! That's what we have been told as of now! I'm sure that for those of you who are part of the school system (Grandma, Grandpa, and Grammie), the timing couldn't have been more crazy! Oh well, looks like baby Fort is already making his/her demands on the world!

And now for our baby's portrait:



And his/her beautiful profile:

Great news! And 145 is definitely a great number. Sounds like a strong healthy baby is growing up inside. How is pregnant mommy feeling?
