Ok, so it's been almost a year since our last post. Seriously, we're going to try to do better. Especially since we have some news...
Baby Lawing is on the way!
Yep, we're expecting our first little one around June 15th. I'm currently 12 weeks 3 days. We just went to the OB today for our second visit, and were able to see the little one squirming around in there. It's about 2 inches long and is very healthy, with a very strong heartbeat. We were so excited to get a good view of the baby, and it was really fun to watch it wiggle and move. It was so active that the ultrasound tech had a hard time getting clear pictures, but we did end up with some really good ones. We also got to hear the heartbeat! It was really amazing to be able to see what a miracle is growing inside me!
Since I'm 12 weeks, I should be getting out of the 'morning sickness' phase of the pregnancy soon. I can't wait! I haven't had traditional morning sickness (as in running to the bathroom in the morning, or any time of day for that matter), but I have been pretty sick. I've been constantly nauseous and not able to eat much any time of day. I've actually lost weight this trimester, which my doctor said is fairly normal, because of my inability to eat. But it hasn't been as bad as it could be, and it's also been kind of reassuring. At this point in the pregnancy I'm not showing and I can't feel the baby move, so the sickness has been a reminder that the baby is there, and growing! I'm starting to have a few good days here and there, so I'm hoping this phase is almost over.
So, we'll try to keep the blog regularly updated, especially since we know our families will be clamoring for news!
Here are a couple more ultrasound pictures!
