Week 10

Whew, we have made it to our first appointment. A task that we missed out on last time. I think we were both a little nervous and scared. I have still been having a lot of symptoms, but I guess until you really see it ...it's a little hard to believe.

The appointment went well, we got to see our little kumquat (that's the size it is right now) for the first time. It was moving around pretty good and we got to hear the heartbeat for the first time. That was a very special moment. I thought I would get emotional and cry, but I couldn't take my eyes of the ultrasound screen...there really is a baby in there. :) The doctor said that everything looks great and the heartbeat sounds very strong.

I feel ok...I am very tired, have to pee a lot, my pants feel a little bit snug, and I get nauseated at times. But other than that I feel pretty good.
