15 weeks 5 days

The first time we listened for the heartbeat several weeks ago, it could barely be heard. So much that The Wife didn't hear it, and it's possible that I just imagined it. Today, the Dr. had a med student with her and the med student was all over the place with that microphone thingy and couldn't find it. So The Doc stepped in and found it pretty quickly and it was super loud. WHUUW-WHUUW-WHUUW-WHUUW-WHUUW-WHUUW. Man, that was pretty cool. The Wife was ecstatic. She needed that. It seemed like a little reward for everything she's gone through so far.

Oh, and according to some Chinese zodiac calendar predictor whozit whatzit, she's determined that we're having a girl. Speaking of that, the more we talk about it, the more we're thinking of not finding out if The Baby is a boy or a girl ahead of time.

Find out. There's plenty of other things to worry about and be surprised with with having a baby. Besides, I hate sending green and yellow gifts. :-)

So happy for you guys and your little beans heartbeat! Best sound on earth!
