We are 12 weeks pregnant now, so surreal. It still seems unreal to talk about baby stuff for me/us, for our baby. I honestly thought I've never be here, meaning pregnant. We weren't done trying to get pregnant, we were going to start getting help this year, in the next few months in fact. I don't know if it's because we weren't actually trying, that getting pregnant was on the backburner because of the holidays & family. I mean I tried to get pregnant, I knew I might be ovulating & I was hoping for the best but I guess because I'm just so use to not ovulating, so use to failing at getting pregnant that I just wasn't thinking about it. We did our thing & then it was done. I focused on other things, family & the upcoming weeks. Never even thinking that there was even a tiny chance of it working, of us actually getting pregnant. But apparently we did. And this little nugget is one strong little being. He/She held on through a lot and I will always be thankful for such a strong baby! It was truly meant to be! So, enough sap, onto the details!!!
Baby C will grow this week from 2.5 to 2.8 inches and he/she weighs around .3 to .5 ounces.
So amazing! To think about our baby growing every single day, bigger & stronger!
What's been happening with me AKA symptoms: Nausea & Breast Tenderness have slowly went away but has come back with gusto lately. No nausea on Thursday but it was loud & proud yesterday! Today my breasts are quite sensitive/sore. I have my first real case of heartburn this morning which makes me smile. Oh, the morning insomnia apparently is back, hopefully not for too long. I think the most amazing part so far is feeling/knowing our baby is growing. I know when there is extra pressure & more pains that our baby is growing and he/she was yesterday. It truly amazes me. That even this early I can feel my body making room for baby. Or baby making room for itself. :) Whichever it be.
My first real OB appt is Monday & I should get to hear the heartbeat. For the first time ever! The pregnancy tests, the symptoms, the unreal, will become REAL! I know hearing the heartbeat will take my breath away & make this pregnancy oh so real. Hearing the heartbeat, knowing that's OUR baby, will be so ... I don't even know. It's just going to be a whole new world! Our baby's heartbeat! I can't wait!
Can't wait to hear how the appt goes
