Beating of Hearts

We had another appointment yesterday at the fertility clinic.  It was our nine week check up.  The girls are growing right on schedule, but was most amazing was hearing their heartbeats.  I am still in awe at the sound.  So wonderful.  So amazing!

This picture does not do the experience justice, but I don't have a recording, so...

The doctor is pleased with how the fetuses are developing.  There is still a bleed in my uterus, so he's going to refer me to a high risk OB to determine if I should go off the Lovenox.  To be honest, I would love to not have to give myself any more injections.  I won't need to see the high risk OB for a couple more weeks, so hopefully the bleed will get smaller again.  Until then I will continue to take it easy.

And I will continue to think about their little beating hearts.  It was truly amazing to hear and it has me singing "Beating of Hearts" by XTC.

You have heard
You have heard the loudest sound
In this and every world you can think of

Louder than tanks on the highway
Louder than bombers in flight
Louder than noises of hatred
Dancing us from darkest night is the rhythm of love
Powered on the beating of hearts
