12 weeks update

I went to the doctor and my due date was changed to October 7th which puts me a little further along than I originally thought. I am very eager to end the first trimester so that I can put the nausea behind me, and really begin to enjoy the pregnancy. I had an ultrasound today at my doctors appointment and the baby was moving so much...fliping around and waving arms and legs. The doctor giggled at how much the baby was moving, she pleaded "stay still I have to measure you!" Everything is going well says the doctor. My next appointment is in five weeks. I promise as soon as you can really tell I am pregnant I will post pictures. Until then be satisfied with my adorable little gymnast baby....

From embryo to fetus!

Well, I will be 9 weeks tomorrow and much has happened since my last post. When I was about 71/2 weeks I had a bit of a scare that landed me in the ER, but good news. All is well. I had an ultrasound and everything looked great. The babies heartbeat was 161 and the Dr assured me that that was very good. I was diagnosed with first trimester spotting. I must say I really want the 2nd trimester to get here fast, apart from the obvious reason (the big M/C) I am really tired of throwing up. It has become pretty common place for me to throw up once or twice a day. The doctor told me to enjoy the "morning sickness" b/c it signifys a healthy pregnancy...but geez. My first Dr's appointment is next Friday, and I am excited although I don't think very much will happen this visit. My baby book informs me that as of tomorrow my baby will graduate from an embryo to a Fetus....which basically means it looks like a human now YAY (but a very tiny human about the size of a green olive) I must nap now, but I will try to update after my Dr's appointment.
