The belly arrives

This picture was taken at the start of week 11. Honestly, I already felt huge at this point... but seeing what my belly looks like now week 11 was nothing. I will have Eric take another updated picture. Just for the record.

Baby's first sound!

Today we had a doctor's appointment in which we were hoping to hear the heart beat for the first time. Honestly, it was nerve racking! So many questions and thoughts. Once Dr. Hahn got to listening she was having difficulty finding anything but the beat of my own heart... of course she tried to reassure me that it was early and we might not hear anything. But, then there it was! YEAH! We recorded it on our phones so that we could listen to it again and again and again!

Week 8 arrives

We had our 2nd doctors appointment today. I sat in the doctor's lobby anxiously waiting all the exciting things that would happen in the appointment - only to be disappointed. They took my blood pressure and then the doctor came in and said "well, your still pregnant!" and that was IT!!! I mean it was good to know I was still pregnant, but I thought many more things would happen at this appointment. She did schedule an appointment to hear the heart beat.

What a birthday!

The day was spent SICK!!! I sat on the couch... Eric, had taken the day off so I felt bad that there was no may I was moving. He did get me Campbell's chicken soup in a pouch (which is the only thing I wanted), ginger ale, and some ice cream. He is a sweetie!
