Amy and I just got back from our first ultrasound. We are told (by the Doctor herself and the caption on the pic) that this is our baby. There is only one. Which is both a relief and letdown.
We also heard the heartbeat.
It was sort of a liquid percussive sound. It was strange. And that little thud just changed my life. This whole thing just got a lot more scary and a lot more beautiful. In other words, a lot more real. This isn't life in the abstract "vote pro-life" sense. This is an actual peanut-sized life inside my wife. And I helped put it there. How ridiculuous is that?!
