This is the sound of our little JAM's heartbeat at 19 weeks...

I will never forget the moment, at our ten week appointment, when John and I heard our baby's heartbeat for the first time. There wasn't a dry eye between the two of us; to say it was an incredible moment would not even begin to capture the emotion of that day.

This was our baby... our precious little miracle, and that sound that filled the room was his or her heartbeat. It's a sound I will never forget.

At our 19 week appointment, we brought in my digital camera, in the hopes to capture on video the ultrasound... sadly, they didn't allow video in the ultrasound room, but we were able to use it to capture the sound of our baby's heartbeat.

  

And this is at 34 weeks...

Around 34 weeks, we once again had the opportunity to record the baby's heartbeat. How fast and strong it is! (Stop the one above, and click play on this one to listen!)
