5 weeks, 0 days. 3/12/11
Symptoms: pimples, trouble sleeping
So far I feel good. I'm not a whole lot different right now--except trying to eat more healthy and make sure I don't skip breakfast. Plus I didn't fast on Wednesday like I was supposed to.
I just bought my first book, and I took my first belly picture... Which was not as flat as I hoped to start off, but oh well. What can you do?
Blood test results from last week were good, 1059 HcG and 49 progesterone on Monday, 2600 + HcG on Wed progesterone the same. So everything looks good so far, now we're just waiting for our ultrasound!!
5 weeks, 1 day. 3/12/11
Symptoms: none!
I feel great today. Totally normal, no different. I took a nap, which I usually don't do if Keith is home, but it's not that unusual. I did a light card workout, but didn't go to the gym because I was lazy (plus gas isn't cheap!)
6 weeks, 3 days. 3/22/11
Symptoms: a little tiny bit nauseous when I eat but that's it, plus tired earlier in the evening than usual
Today we saw our baby!! It was the most amazing thing I have ever ever seen. The little flicker on the screen was so cool... And then they turned the sound on and I sobbed like a little baby. 130 beats per minute, absolutely perfect. They gave us a DVD so we can keep it forever. When our baby is old enough, we can show him the first time we ever saw his picture. That will be unbelievable.
7 weeks, 2 days. 3/28/11
Symptoms: same
It's time to tell the parents... And we are terrified. No one is expecting this. No one knows it's coming. Mike and Cindy are coming this weekend, and we are telling mom on Skype tonight. Eek!
8 weeks, 1 day. 4/2/11
Symptoms: same
Told mom on Monday. She cried and was so happy. Can't wait for me to tell Mag. Told Mike and Cindy tonight, and it went great. Everyone is happy and I'm over the moon. Now I just have to figure out how to tell dad and Mag.
8 weeks, 1 day. 4/3/11
Symptoms: a little gaggy, tired enough to go to bed 1/2 an hour early, and tonight I was too nauseous to eat dinner... But I'm hoping that has less to do with morning sickness and more to do with the fact that I ate half a bag of cheetos puffs about 20 minutes before dinner.
Today the baby starts to move! I won't be able to feel it for a while, but that is so neat to know that our baby is is there, moving around on his/her own.
8 weeks, 6 days. 4/8/11
Apparently baby hates dinner. I eat fine until about 6 o'clock, then nothing sounds, looks, smells, or tastes good. It is so strange!
9 weeks, 4 days. 4/13/11
Had an appointment today, just blood work and info though, nothing interesting. Right now I am most interested in researching cloth diapers. I am pretty much obsessed.
11 weeks, 3 days. 4/21/11
Wait, what? Those days are wrong!!! Or not. The doctor who saw me today moved me forward five days, so I totally skipped what seems like forever!! Besides that, baby sounds good. Heard the heartbeat today, very strong at 170 bpm.
Symptoms: acne seems to be getting worse. Besides that, nothing. Still just feeling the same!
12 weeks. 4/25/11
My counselor said I'm showing. Eep!!! I still haven't told work so I am trying to hide it as long as possible. No news on baby though, everything is quiet on that front.
13 weeks. 5/2/11
Symptoms: I can't stand chicken. Sight, smell, thought. Chicken = vom
We had a scan today! I drank some orange juice so little Obi Wan would move around, and WHOA BABY did s/he move!! Little person was jumping all around, waving his hands like crazy and wouldn't settle down for any measurements!! He finally calmed down enough to do what the tech needed, but he was def. playing shy and hiding from the camera. Silly baby!!
13 weeks, 1 day. 5/3/11
It's my birthday!! I took the day off and got a pedicure, spent the day doing a whole lot of nothing. Haven't had any baby updates in a while, mostly because everything is keeping audit. My belly is slowly getting larger, and the waistband (thankfully no other parts!!) of my pants is getting tighter, but that is really it.
Symptoms: none!
14 weeks. 5/9/11
I am feeling very strongly that this baby is a boy. I'm not sure why, but I have a hunch. I was right about Maggie, so we will see, in about six weeks!!
14 weeks, 3 days. 5/12/11
Dr. called today and said they have an opening for an early ultrasound. Interested?! UH DUH! We will get to find out what little Obi Wan is in FIVE DAYS!!!
15 weeks, 1 day. 5/17/11
Apparently my hunch was 100% wrong. Obi Wan is a girl. Keith doesn't like calling her Obi Wan(ette) so we will have to come up with a nickname while we come up with a real name.
A girl!! Sugar and spice, and everything nice. Squee!!!!
