10 Weeks and 4 days

It's already going by fast...I can't believe I'm ALMOST out of the first tri-mester! WOOT! Well on Tuesday we went in for my first official check up to have my first exam and listen for a hearbeat. I've kind of been dreading it just being really nervous about NOT finding a heartbeat. I'm almost to 11 weeks which is when I found out my last baby/fetus didn't make it. Everything went well and my uterus was on track which is great (because the last one wasn't) Then she went to listen for a heartbeat...BUM BUM BUM!!! She couldn't find anything! AHHHHHH My heart was seriously breaking and the midwife and Chris both kept saying just breath just breathe. So she quickly brought in a portable ultrasound and pulled up the screen.... THANK GOODNESS she found a heartbeat and baby was moving everywhere arms and all. Sooo cute. Such a sweet tender moment for me. PHEW! What a relief for me and my midwife said I'm about 95% in the clear which is WONDERFUL! So we got another picture of baby at 10 weeks and 2 days!

Still so tiny but amazing that we could see it moving.



Week 10: Prune

Average size: 1.2 inches, .14 oz.
Baby's arm joints are working, and soon the legs will too...

I kept thinking to myself well maybe I'm having twins...mostly because I'm feeling way more exhausted and yucky than I EVER did with the Gray man. hahaha. Just a fun thought but all we've seen is one. But my midwife did mention maybe it's a girl and that's why I'm feeling this much different. Well We will find out in about a month and a half!

My nails are growing crazy fast. I actually clipped them last time they were so long. Normally they break or snag and they just wouldn't break! hahaha. So I trimmed them last weekend and they are already getting long again. One small perk to pregnancy. haha this is personal information and NO judging. I stand on the scale at home before I get in the shower and I weight about 127 which I'm happy with. Then I go to the Dr's office and can't take off my clothes obviously so I do what I can and take off my coat and shoes. haha (silly I know) but they weight me at 131. Yuck! I feel so bloated already and that just CAN'T happen NOT YET! hahaha.
I understand that you gain weight when you get prego...you're supposed to but I just hate feeling that way this early. I CAN'T gain more than I did last time unless I have a bigger baby that's understandable. haha. last time I went from 124-136 in the first 6 months so about 12 pounds. I was happy and felt things were going well...THEN BAM! Suddenly I just couldn't control it and I suddenly started gaining more weight hahaha. Luckily I only got up to 153 or about 33 pounds. I can handle that. Enough of my weight ranting. I just can't believe how differently I've been feeling this time compared to when I was pregnant with Grayson.
