Quick update from appointments!

well, now i am FINALLY pregnant! and i am really really excited about it! i had my first prenatal appointment on Dec 21st. i was able to see just a small spot, but they had no clue how far along i was. but i got this picture! i was told to come back a week later to determine my due date and to see how far along i am! i got to see the heartbeat this time and it was so awesome! my only wish is that Jared was there with me...

so my next appointment, Jared was able to go with, YAY!!!!! they did another ultrasound and found that i was about 6 weeks 4 days pregnant with the little monkey! i got to hear the heartbeat this time! and it was beating 143 bpm! My doctor told me my due date is Aug 20th! and scheduled me a month out for my next appointment (which in pregnancy time, that is forever away!)

the entire month i was waiting for my next appointment, i was SICK!!!!! i had the hardest time forcing anything down, and it seems like nothing would help. i burst some blood vessels in my face, so i looked like i had a rash, and even popped some vessels in my eyes. yuck! i cant WAIT for this trimester to be over with!

Finally! Jan 26th arrived! i got to finally go see my baby again and see how much it had grown. my last appointment, it was about .7 cm tall. really little guy. this appointment, the heartrate was up above 160 and baby was doing awesome!!!!! i had lost 5 lbs in the last month, so my doc wants to make sure i dont continue down that path, so i have yet another appointment in 2 weeks (YAY!!!!!)

here is my last ultrasound
