When I found out I was pregnant and asked Eric to go with me to the Dr.'s Appointments, he was reluctant. I told him that he didn't have to go to all of them but the one's where I had an ultrasound and stuff like that would be good. He agreed.
At our last appointment, we had our ultrasound and got to hear the heartbeat. The Dr. explained that we would hear the heart beat at every appointment because they do that to make sure that everything is still fine with the baby.
Last night when we went to bed Eric laid his head on my stomach and told me to be quiet. I wondered what he was doing and then realized that he was trying to hear the babies heartbeat. I told him that it probably wouldn't work because the baby is buried in there pretty good but inside it warmed my heart because I realized that Eric is really excited. Then he said that it didn't matter if he could hear the heartbeat he just wanted to be close so the baby could hear him. He's not someone that expresses himself a lot but last night I realized that inside he is really excited about this.
Then he told me that he had talked to his boss and told him he needed to be off for Dr.'s appointments. He told me he wanted to go so he could hear the heartbeat. It made me so happy :)
AWww! That is TOO sweet! :)
