Look! I can still see my feet! I am not much bigger than last month so I thought I would try a different perspective. Although taking a picture of your pregnant belly with a wide angle lens will make objects (like PG bellies) appear larger than they seem!
Only a little more than a week left until I am through the first trimester, if only the other 2 trimesters went by as fast as the first… I can very slowly feel my energy increasing. I pee 40+ times a day, waking at least 4 times a night. I think I have been feeling little flutters here and there, but that could be side effects from my cravings. I crave things that cause heartburn like salami, hot banana peppers, tomatoes, lemonade, and Tabasco. What can I say? I am a glutton for punishment.
Much to my surprise I got to see the baby yesterday!
I got to see it moving it’s little hands around, and it’s heart beating strong. I was speechless, my eyes filled with tears. I was just expecting to get to hear a heartbeat, but they said it can be hard to hear the heartbeat yet, so they just do a quick ultrasound to put mom at ease. So I wasn’t prepared to get to see the little jellybean in motion.
Seeing our baby stole my breath. It was nothing short of amazing…..
In 8 more weeks I get to have another ultrasound, where they should be able to tell us the sex of the baby. I asked the tech today if she saw a penis…she just laughed at me.
I am so excited!
