Week 12

Well, we have finally made it to 12 weeks! For us this is huge and something we have never experienced.

Baby is continuing to make his/her appearance and it's amazing to see my belly grow each week. I think I have finally peaked when it comes to morning sickness, I feel good most days but right now I am battling a cold which is not fun at all.


Yesterday we had our 12 week appointment and it was just supposed to be a simple appointment and going over medical history plus listening to the heartbeat. My doctor is amazing and decided instead of using the doppler which can sometimes be difficult to hear the heartbeat with he opted to just do an ultrasound.

We were over the moon when this little sweetie showed up on the screen! We saw his/her feet moving and we even got a wave! It was incredible, Kyle and I were speechless the whole time. The heart rate was a healthy 150 and it was glorious!


After this appointment I scheduled our early elective gender ultrasound and in 3 weeks we will find out what Baby Smith is! We can't wait. 

What a journey this has already been and we know it is going to continue to get better! 

Happy Thursday!

  25. You look so awesome!! I remember the panic when the midwife had issues finding Calvin's heartbeat, and even though she eventually found it after several minutes, I was indeed glad that I also had an u/s a few minutes later. Those pictures are extremely precious. Enjoy!!
