2nd Dr. Appointment

Well we went for our 2nd appointment today. It look forever to see her, we waited about an hour and 1/2 but once she put the Doppler on and we heard the heartbeat it was well worth it. Thalia said that the baby's heart was beating about 156 beats per minute. Then she asked me if I had any motherly instinct as to what we were having, I said "No, not really." I don't know what we are having but I am excited to find out.

At the end of next month we will have a sonogram and learn the sex of the baby, YEAH!!!! I get a notice once a week telling me what's going on with the baby and at week 14, the baby can squint, frown, grimace and suck his/her thumb. He/She is about the size of a lemon at 3 1/2 inches long and weighs about 1 1/2 ounces. I am going to try and update what's going on with the baby as things begin to change. I am also hopeful to get a picture of the first sonogram up on the blog so you can see the baby when it looked like a jelly bean!

Week 1-14

I didn't really blog much about my pregnancy to date because it's been pretty uneventful...well except for that it has begun!! I have had a great first trimester. I haven't gotten sick, just tired but I have slowly started to get my energy back. Life is just great right now! I am one of those people who at this point would say she loves being pregnant! My clothes are just starting to get tight and I have begun wearing prego pants...the best part is the elastic band, a girls best friend!!
