I LOOK:
Tired. Pimply. A bit fat.
I FEEL:
Pretty good from about 9 am to 6 pm. Before that or after that I've exhaused and I want to sleep! The nausea stopped about week eleven (thank goodness) as suddenly as it started. I got a cold last week and it has been hanging on (in the snot phrase) for a bit too long. So much snot...
I CRAVE:
Kraft mac and cheese! All the time and without ceasing :)
I THINK:
- I am so glad to be done with the nausea! Overjoyed that the "good feeling" trimester is starting.
- I'd rather look pregnant than fat, but I don't see that happening.
- I'm ready for the world to know and it is killing me not to shout from the rooftop!
- Sleep is good (repeated from 8w).
I HOPE: God keeps knitting together a perfect baby for our family. All the screening tests and doctor's vivists over the next two weeks go smoothly and I am able to manage them with work.
DOCs SAY:
A week ago, we have a wonderful visit for Dr. Jebilli, our funny ObGyn. My mom was able to come with us and see Baby Pixie moving around. In the above u/s picture the balls of white above the baby's tummy are arms and legs. On the actual u/s you could see the seperation of fingers and toes. Pixie measured a few days bigger than before, so our official due date has been moved to April 3, 2011!
Friday the 17th I went to turn in papers and give blood. Sept. 23rd I go back to get the results and complete a physical, and the 24th I have another ultrasound for an NT scan and to see the baby again!!
Nov. 14th is the date set for the big, gender reveal ultrasound!
This afternoon, we got to see the baby again on the u/s screen! Baby was moving and grooving all over the place while the tech was trying to measure. It is amazing how much difference two weeks makes in the development!
