Hearing the Heartbeats

At 6 weeks 6 days pregnant, we had a little scare and had to return to the doctor for a second ultrasound. We anxiously stared at the screen to see those babies again and there they were. Both babies had doubled in size in two days! One of the babies heart rate was 140 bpm while the other was still 115 bpm. Without telling us, Teri (now our new best friend) turned on the doppler to hear their little heartbeats. My breath caught and I started to cry. It was just an amazing sound. At that moment it finally sunk in...I'm going to be a mom!
