Week 12 Appointment

We had our 12 week appointment yesterday. They tried to listen to the heartbeat, but I'm still a little too early and my heartbeat was too strong and overpowering. I was also down 3 lbs. and the doctor told me that was fine as long as I didn't continue to lose. All of my vitals were good and that was the appointment.

I also called so I could make an appointment for early trimester screening. This will check for Downs Syndrome as well as some other possible birth defects. They will hopefully be able to get me in soon for that.

That is about everything. I will officially be 12 weeks on Saturday. Boy how the time has flown by.

Week 9

One day away from 10 weeks!! It has gone by quickly, but so slow at the same time. The hardest part has been not telling people. I still have so many people to tell, but am trying to wait until I'm 12 weeks.

Week 9 has been the beginning of morning sickness. For me it has been more evening sickness though. This has not been a fun time. Also, I don't think Ray really knows what it feels like so he isn't sympathetic to the feeling... if only every guy could get pregnant.

I have another doctor's appointment on April 15 (tax day) and will be a little over 11 weeks. Hopefully we will get another ultrasound of our little bean.
