Found heartbeat with stethoscope! :)

I'm too excited not to share! I know a lot of you ladies have dopplers and have been able to hear your baby since 1st tri but I've been patiently awaiting the day where I could hear his heartbeat with a stethoscope. I check every few nights before bed but I can usually just hear his movements/kicks [and my digestion]. Last night I tried again and this time heard a fast pulsing! Before I got too excited I grabbed my watch and timed it. Perfect 144bpm. Yup, that's my baby alright, finally big enough to be heard from the outside. I of course yelled to my husband [I didn't want to move and lose where the stethoscope was! haha] so he could hear it too. Very awesome moment.
