Had our twelve week ultrasound yesterday and all looks perfect :) They did the nuchal transparency screening and everything looks a-ok. Our little peanut was wiggling around, waving arms and legs and so very very baby shaped! It gets cooler and cooler every time, when we get to see how much he/she has grown. The baby is measuring 12w5d and is a little more than 6cm long. We don’t go back to the doctor for another four weeks.
I have been alternating between feeling great and feeling like crap. Last weekend I was ravenously hungry and pretty energetic, but come Monday I completely lost my appetite for anything but “Ants on a Log” aka celery sticks with peanut butter and raisins. I threw up for the very first time of this pregnancy on Wednesday night, the last day of my first trimester. I was attempting to choke down a salad when my upcooperative body decided to gag on a forkful and up came dinner. Lovely.
I hope everyone has a wonderful relaxing holiday weekend! We have some plans to see friends, but other than that we are going to lay low. Happy 4th!
Oh, I’m so excited for you!!! I’m glad that testing was good, it’s such a relief to have that over, isn’t it? (it was for me, anyway). You look terrific, and I’m sure you’ll be feeling great soon. Have a great fourth weekend!!
