12w

Had my NT screening at 11w3d and I felt very vindicated after the scan. That I wasn't making it all up, and that there WAS a little baby in there. It was nice to get some confirmation. =) Shortly after that I had my midwife appointment at 12w1d where everything looked good. They felt my uterus right where it should be and I could definitely tell that they were on it. I'm already starting to poke around there. I just know that I'll be palpating my uterus all the time in the coming months. Is that a spin? A head? Oh yes. At the midwife appointment I recorded the heart rate for DH since he wasn't able to be there. They said it was 170bpm. There was also a bit of a bump in there and they said that was the baby kicking. =) Too cute.

Now that I'm almost in my 2nd tri I am feeling more pregnant and less fat, which is a very nice change. I've also kept poofing outward as the previous picture shows. I haven't been buttoning my pants for a month, but now I can't even zip some of them up. Think it's time to get some real maternity pants. I bought one pair but they are too big so I'm not wearing them too often. I have an Old N. gift card that I'm planning on using here in the near future to get me some pants.

I'm also sick again. Stuck in my nose at the moment. I am so done being sick. I'm never sick this often and I don't like it. Especially since all I can do is keep drinking tea. No drugs for me. Bleh.

All in all, I'm feeling good and happy to have some energy back.
