The first three months

On February 26th we had our first sonogram. I was exactly 9 weeks on that day. Weeks 6 through 12 were the only really rough ones for me. At about 4 or 5 weeks I started feeling nauseous. Weeks 6 through about 10 I got sick at least once a night, right after dinner. The following two weeks I only got sick once a week. By week 13 I wasn't feeling wonderful but I wasn't throwing up anymore... I was still a bit nauseous but as the weeks went on and I began my second trimester I felt a lot better. I felt blessed that my "morning sickness" (which was really more like night sickness) only lasted a few short weeks.


In March, when I was a little over 12 weeks we had our second ultrasound. We got some beautiful pictures of our healthy baby.


It's no lie when they say you'll feel a lot better in the second trimester. I got a little energy back (not too much, but a little is better than nothing)... so I wasn't ready to pass out the second I got out of work and going to bed at 9 o'clock anymore. My appetite increased and I wasn't feeling like I was going to throw up all the time.
