Well, things have improved a lot since the last time I blogged. Over the last two weeks I've felt a huge improvement in my energy level and I'm nauseous much less frequently. I'm glad about that. There is still the occasional "Uh oh, I need to eat something... NOW" moment, but I'm glad that it is less often. This is supposed to happen as you get closer to your second trimester, which I am only a week away from now. I am 12 weeks. Apparently, the placenta (provides what the baby needs) is now starting to be fully self-functional, meaning my body is starting to get a break for providing for both me and the baby.
Baby Maerz is now supposedly over 2 inches long (twice the size of the sonogram picture). I'm starting to get a little baby bump, which is fun. It still isn't baby... it's all of my organs being pushed up and around from the uterus and baby growing. Although, at my last doctor's appointment last week, the nurse practitioner showed me how to feel the uterus which is now grown over the top of my pelvis. So I can actully feel "baby" (sort of) now. :)
Nate and I are spending every weekend hour available next door at our second house getting things done. For those who don't know, we bought the house next door to us for a great price, and plan on flipping it for profit. So, that is an exciting thing we've been doing together. Don't worry, I'm definitely NOT overdoing it. :)
We look forward to driving to Massachusetts to visit Diana, Ajay and Nehemiah (oh yah, and baby Reddy #2!!) on Wednesday evening for Thanksgiving. My parents are going as well, so we should have a great time together.
Well, I think that's all for now. Thanks for reading! Hope to update when I have new info.
