Wow, 12 weeks already!

I can't believe I am now 12 weeks pregnant! I have been counting down to now for a while and it feels crazy that it's finally hear. Poppy is now the size of a small lime. He is curling and uncurling his toes and fingers and his mouth is making sucking motions. Adorable!

I've been completely exhausted for the last two weeks. I can barely keep my eyes open most of the day and I've been heading to bed between 8:30 and 9.

The nausea is starting to get a little better, though it's still there. The other night I actually threw up a little while I was driving. I was coughing really deeply and started to choke. All of a sudden, I had a mouth full of vomit. I was in DH's car, so it took me a little while to find a bag to spit into. I was also on the highway and it was dark and rainy. I had to drive five more minutes to the next exit before I could finish puking. It was pretty pathetic.

Unfortunately, that wasn't even my most pathetic moment of the week. Last weekend, I was having another coughing fit when a little pee came out! It was completely horrifying. I wasn't expecting to have to deal with that until the 3rd trimester. Time to do those kegels!

How far along? 12 weeks!

Total weight gain/loss: Down about two pounds
Maternity clothes? Not yet, though I did buy a few cute tops last weekend and a pair of shorts and capris.
Stretch marks? I have small ones on the sides of my breasts. :(
Sleep: I can't get enough sleep! I can barely stay awake until 8:30 most nights.

Best moment this week: My friend Tracey just told us last night that she is pregnant. She is 6 1/2 weeks, which is just a few weeks behind us. I'm actually really excited to be pregnant with her and to have our babies be best friends!

Movement: Nope.
Food cravings: None right now. I haven't been very hungry.
Gender: I'm not sure, though right now I'm thinking we're having a girl.
Labor Signs: None

Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Staying awake past 9 o'clock.

What I am looking forward to: I'm still looking forward to finishing the 1st trimester, though I'm really confused about whether that happens at 12 weeks, 13 weeks, or 13 weeks 3 days. Oh well, it's really soon. We also have the NT scan on Tuesday. I'm looking forward to that, but I'm also really nervous.
Weekly Wisdom: Go to bed when you're tired, even if it seems ridiculously early.

Milestones: Reaching 12 weeks is a pretty big milestone for me!
