    Just thought I would share that my wife and I are going for her first ultrasound today! Hopefully everything is going all right in there!

    Todays ultrasounds are amazing. You will have a wonderful and amazing view of what your child will look like. Back in our day, we just had to take the technicians word for it concerning what parts were. now they are so amazingly clear. Keep us up to date.

    That was above and beyond what I expected. Got to see the little one moving all over the place. Everything looked good, heartbeat of 170 and measuring 1.5 weeks ahead of what we thought! Pretty awesome morning.

    Congrats! Its a pretty cool feeling, eh? My wife and I are expecting our first in late June. I have a feeling I won't get the full effect of things until he pops out. Right now I'm still living in denial that my life isn't going to change. :D

    Congrats man! It's pretty cool what they can do today. one of my most vivid memories of the pregnancy thing was the day we went for an ultra sound and I found out we where having a boy. :rock: I was so happy cause this was after 3 girls! LOL I hope all is well with baby and your wife. Father hood is a cool experience!

    Oh and Justin you will come back to reality soon very soon! :poke:

    :lol:. I find this funny because that is how I felt. However much you think it will change your life multiply it by 10x.

    Congrats

    I will have to second that, things will certainly change but it is worth it. Look at it like this, you get another hunting partner, I have 4, lol

    Being completely honest, I would not have been surprised if we went in and they had said she wasnt even pregnant (even after 8 pregnancy tests and 2 doctors appointments). My wife hasnt been sick and doesnt look any different yet ( except for her, ummmm, girls growing :rock:) and it just didnt seem like I going to be a father. The ultrasound changed that a lot, but it still feels kind of like a dream.


    Not only will I be getting a hunting partner, but I've been introducing it as my new dishwasher :)

    It's a great feeling now....but an amazing feeling after they arrive. Love every second of it and don't wish for the future.
