12 week appointment update

Another great appointment in the books!

This appointment was great for several reasons:

1. We got to hear the baby's heart beat on the Doppler, which means I am far enough along and baby is big enough that we don't have to have an ultrasound to know that baby is doing ok.
2. Dr. D took me off prometrium.
3. I don't go back for 4 weeks because I am now a "normal pregnancy."
4. I am almost out of 1st trimester! I really never thought this day would come.

Overall, in the span of 30 minutes lots happened. I got weighed (up 7 pounds- wow!), I got a flu shot and I was assured that baby and I are doing great!

Funny thing, when trying to find baby with the Doppler, Dr. D couldn't find the little goof at first. However, as soon as he rolled over to my left side just above my hip, found him/her. A nice loud 174!!

The next time I update I will give you a detailed look at what baby is up to in there. Also, I thought I would share some photos of what baby has gotten so far.

Ahhhh so exciting!!
