I apologize to those who actually follow this blog (I know there are at least a few of you :P). I have been so nervous, excited and overwhelmed with this pregnancy that I've totally slacked on my blogging. But I am back - I promise.
For some updates: today, I am 12 weeks pregnant. I have officially hit the "safe zone". Meaning that, after this point, the chances of a miscarriage dramatically drop. That said, I was already feeling pretty safe. My doctor scheduled me for an ultrasound when I was 7-and-a-half weeks pregnant. It was amazing! We saw our little baby (looked more like an oblong "blob", but I was still in love!), the heartbeat, beating perfectly at 158 bpm (causing my husband to sigh the biggest sigh of relief I have EVER heard - and this from a guy who said he wasn't worried!), and learned that our new love was measuring at 8 weeks - right around where he/she was supposed to!
On the down side, the dreaded morning sickness hit me - hard! I have never vomited so much in my life! Luckily, I think it may be finally starting to go away. Though I was sick today, the three previous days were great - no vomiting, and very little nausea. I just want this to end before Christmas!!!
Speaking of Christmas...about a week before then, I am set to find out the sex of the little lentil. I can't wait to stop referring to this blessed baby as an "it"!!!
