I made it to the second trimester. I feel 95% better. I haven't been nauseous at all and I feel like a normal human being. However, I have been having a beast of a headache for the past few days. Blake and I went to our checkup last Wed the 5th. We met with our new doctor and really liked her. She took me off of my progesterone meds and I feel so much better since then. I have lost 5lbs but she said that was normal, so no worries with that. I have not been hungry at all and been force feeding myself at least 3 meals a day........maybe 2. It's hard to eat when you are just not hungry. We had a ultrasound and the baby was SO CUTE!!! Bouncing all over, karate chopping my insides and doing flips. At one point it waved to us. It was so sweet. During the ultrasound I kept saying "he"....I don't know why, there def was no parts to see. After the ultrasound we met with the doctor and she said "your baby is huge", we both asked what she meant by that. She said, that usually a baby that was a threatened miscarriage baby usually measures smaller then what you are. At that point I was saying I was 12 weeks. She said she would expect our baby to measure 11 weeks but instead, it measured 13 weeks. Therefore,our baby is a BEAST!
Other than the appointment and the deadly headaches not much to report. I will eventually post a pic of my belly when it changes. It just looks wide and boy-like. After I eat I look tubby. I like myself in the morning the best. At nights and in the morning the baby likes to be on my left side at the bottom. If I push on my belly, I can feel the flutters.
Here is our muffin! It's so beautiful (in our eyes)
