12 Weeks

We've survived 12 weeks!! Only 28 more to go! We had another sonogram yesterday and they performed a few different genetic tests to make sure Baby Mags is healthy and everything looks great! They will discuss some of the results of my blood work with me at my next appointment on April 12, but the doctor said everything looks fantastic! What a relief!!

How far along? 12. 3 weeks
Total weight gain/loss:  Down 1 lb at the doctor yesterday (this varies by the day I think)
Maternity clothes?  Started rocking the belly band with my work pants, but that's all.
Stretch marks?  Nope
Sleep: Sleeping great, had some wild dreams last night!

Best moment this week: Having our third sonogram and seeing that baby has a face, arms and little legs. We got to see it moving around, and we saw the little fingers and toes! So Amazing, I couldn't stop smiling!

Have you told family and friends:  We've told mostly everyone now, but haven't made it "Facebook Official"
Miss Anything?  Wine and Turkey Sandwiches
Movement:  Haven't felt it, but finally saw it on the sono
Food cravings:  Not really
Anything making you queasy or sick: I sprayed my perfume on this morning and I have been nauseous all day, its either that or my major headache today causing that. Otherwise I've been fine.
Have you started to show yet: Depends on the day whether I'd call it a bump or not, but I'm definitely a little thick in the middle.

Gender prediction: I'm still thinking boy, but we have a lot of people saying girl. My mythical tests I've taken have said both! I guess we'll just have to wait until out the18 week sono on May 9th!

Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off?  On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Finding out the sex on May 9th!! We're also going to register for the big items (Stroller, car seat etc.) before we find out the sex, so I'm excited to do that in a couple weeks.

My Little peanut with a face and the cutest little legs!! (I think its gonna be a runner)

10 Weeks

So I'm a little far behind basically because when we had our Sonogram at the end of February we were told we were about a week off then what we expected. So my estimated due date is now October 7th, rather then end of September. So I had to re-do week 8,  I didn't post anything and then I was just a slacker and forgot to post for week 9.

So here we are at 10 weeks. 10.3 weeks to be exact! We just returned from our trip to Miami Beach, where we went down to run the half marathon, I was soooo sad to have to change my registration from the 13.1 to the 5k, but my back has been bothering me lately and I didn't want to take any chances of irritating anything more by running the half. So I reluctantly did the 5k instead. It was still a beautiful run in downtown Miami and we finished right on South Beach, plus I got a vacation out of the deal so its a win in my book.

We had our first sonogram done on February 28, and everything looked great, heart beat was 179 which she said was perfect, then we had our first appointment with the doctor yesterday and again she said everything was looking great. She tried to find a heartbeat for us on the walkie-talkie looking thing, but we couldn't pick it up, she said its hard to find when its this early because its still so little. But she let us go into the sono room again and they let us have another look at our peanut. Heart rate was at 170 and the picture this time was visibly bigger then the last one we had which was cool to see. Here's baby's first photo!

 

And now I will do my 10 week update:

How far along? 10.3 weeks
Total weight gain/loss:  Up 1 lb. depending on the day!
Maternity clothes?  Not yet, I've been buying fashionably baggy things so I can wear them now and after baby
Stretch marks?  No
Sleep: Sleeping just fine, especially on the couch around 8pm

Best moment this week: Scheduling my next 3 doctors appointments, including the one where we can (hopefully) find out the gender... May 9th!!

Have you told family and friends:  We've told most of our close family and friends, still trying to make our rounds, but we're not keeping it a secret anymore, except on Facebook still!
Miss Anything?  Drinking!! It was horrible being in Miami South Beach and not drinking, people in that city are just there to get messed up, especially during spring break and I just had to watch.
Movement:  No
Food cravings:  I see food and I want it. Baked potatoes are a hit right now, mangos became a thing today.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Headaches
Have you started to show yet: Depends on the time of day and how much I ate, my sister calls it a food baby!

Gender prediction: I've decided I think its a boy!

Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off?  On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, except when I had to come home from vacation, then I was sad.

Looking forward to: Summer!! I'm sick of winter around here, and it will be closer to meeting my little Baby Mags!
