Month number 3 woohooo, the last month in the first trimester!! I am so ready for the scary first trimester to be over and to move onto trimester 2 which is full of fun things like feeling baby, belly growing, and finding out the gender, so the quicker I can get to the second trimester the better, then it can linger around awhile to enjoy pregnancy for a bit before I get huge and uncomfortable lol

wow week 9 feels like it was just week 4. This week hasn't been very exciting which is good. :) we are use to things happening and having complications so to have nothing really happening makes us alittle on edge lol weird I know. I have been having some pretty bad heartburn and indigestion however the nausea has lifted up alittle and only shows itself in the morning and at night when I get very very tired. My tummy has started to poke out alittle I feel like I'm going to be huge this time around and since I can now tolerate alot more foods I am starting to eat healthier and do things little by little. I'm hoping to have more energy starting next week so Ethan and I can start walking at night now that its been a little cooler at night so that should help with my energy also. Overall this week has been smooth and uneventful :) We wanted to see baby so bad so we decided to go to the 3D/4D ultrasound place to do a small package that included seeing baby for about 10-15 minutes as well as a package of 4 pictures, we also paid a little extra to get our babies heartbeat into a teddy beat, so we can push the little paw of the teddy bear and hear our little ones heartbeat. Baby was jumping around like a little jelly bean punching its little hand and kicking its little legs it was so cute!

I'm feeling rather huge today and its started week 10. We are going to see baby again this Wednesday so Grandma Lorrie can see him/her and Auntie Angela we will do the small package again and get 4 pictures. Our next Dr appt and time we will see the baby will be in 2 weeks so I'm happy we will see the baby again, we love seeing the little one. I am feeling very bloated and HUGE this week, starting to get alittle bit of a complex lol but I know its only natural to gain weight and to be healthy for the baby so I'm going to think positive about my every so growing body lol I have been feeling less nauseous this week and have a tad bit more energy with the ability to do a little extra without being tired. I have been still feeling sick at night before bed but its usually when I'm very very sleepy and exhausted. I also was able to eat turkey meat 2x this week without feeling sick which is awesome and I conquered tacos! I am managing to eat a few extra things that I originally had aversions too which is nice because some of them were my favorite foods and I can slowly eat them again. 2 more weeks until I'm out of the 1st trimester woohoo

This week just started and so far I am feeling good. I was able to clean a little today and we are starting to take things from the extra TV room so that when its time to decorate baby's room it will be empty and ready. I'm still going to the bathroom quite frequently and getting so real bad heartburn still.

The big 1.2. which means that i am moving my way to trimester 2!! I went to the Dr. this week I will post a different post on the whole visit. This week my nausea has come back alittle which makes me sad but only when I am very hungry and when I am extremely tired. I haven't been as tired as I was before and I am able to eat Mexican food again which is a big plus for me We bought a heart beat Doppler this week and finally today 10-9 found the heart beat for a split second and then baby moved again and we count find it again, quick little one lol I also believe that this past Saturday and Sunday I felt small flutters that I think was the baby it was in my lower abdomen and didn't feel like gas so I'm sure it was the little one but I haven't felt it the past 2 days. I'm sure there will be more feeling the baby in due time :)

Body Changes-
I have gained about 5 lbs since last month, my belly is definitely starting to show and I can tell my body is preparing for baby to get bigger.
Baby Progress-
@ 12 weeks-
The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's
fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye
muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. In fact,
if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although
you won't be able to feel it. His intestines, which have grown so fast
that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his
abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine
into his bladder.
Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly,
and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. His face looks
unquestionably human: His eyes have moved from the sides to the front
of his head, and his ears are right where they should be. From crown to
rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long (
about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce.
What Baby looks like-
