12 weeks

I had an ob appt yesterday and all is well. She said that I measured just a few days further along so she did an ultrasound in the office. It was really great to see the baby again. I could not ever tire of looking at my sweet baby's heartbeat. I'm really just so darn happy that it has one. :-) I know that seems silly but given my past and most recent happenings this year, I am just so incredibly thankful for every day that goes by and this baby holds on tight.

This appt entailed the whole physical and all went by quickly and without any problems at all. I only had 2 concerns and one was that I am already getting so big. Hence the ultrasound, which showed just a few days ahead of schedule but she said that was perfectly normal. The other concern was my headaches that I seem to have developed in the last 2 weeks or so. We discussed that it could simply be all of the extra estrogen that my body is developing right now, or it's possible I was low on iron... although my blood tests did turn out ok. So she said that if they continue then I am to go to my regular dr to find out why I am having them. So in a couple weeks if they don't go away then I will do that. Other than that, this baby and I are doing fabulously! Thank you for all your prayers and support. Blessings to you all.
