Lots of milestones

I haven't posted in a long time due to a number of things- most namely I've been too tired!! Until I was about 13 weeks along or so, I would just go to work and then lie on the couch the minute I got home until I found the strength to crawl into bed. I had what I would call "moderate" morning sickness (though it was all day) without really any vomiting until about 11 weeks. No real distinctive food aversions but some days smelled pretty bad during lunch time at the office.

I started experiencing round ligament pain shortly after about 13 weeks which is pretty interesting- some days worse than others. I went for my NT scan at 13 weeks as well and the baby was measuring a week ahead!! That meant they couldn't do the test but the main reason I wanted to do it in the first place was to see the baby....

At about 15 weeks or so I'm pretty sure I began to feel some fetal movement which is pretty cool- it is definitely getting more frequent and noticeable as the days progress, which is pretty awesome!

On Monday I went to the second part of the screening tests and the ultrasound tech did all the measurements ( with a full bladder on my part, which is NOT fun!) and we found out we're having a girl!!! We are very excited!!! Mom already started buying and making cute outfits!

So long story less short- everything seems to be going fine as I approach my halfway point in this pregnancy- next on the list is a checkup appt in a couple weeks and planning of the nursery. My weight gain thus far seems ok- about 5-7 lbs and I'm DEFINITELY beginning to show- more pics to follow- I'm off for a nap
