11 Weeks 3 Days

We've made it to 11 weeks and 3 days! Woohoo!! I'm a little late on my post, but thanks to Baby Center, here's what's been happening during week 11!

First Appointment at my OB's Office

I'm feeling more and more like a regular pregnant person! Yesterday I went to see my OBGYN's nurse, Kay. She does all of his first appointments for him and I absolutely LOVED her! I'd only been to see Dr. C twice before I got shipped off to the fertility center and I was really happy with him...so I suppose I should have guessed that I would like her as well! 
I got to my appointment...gave the obligatory urine sample...
Side note - I know I'm going to have to give a sample every time I go in...but I can tell that the process is going to get increasingly difficult. Why? You ask?! Because the toilet paper dispenser is almost ON THE GROUND!!!!! I literally have to bend myself in half (read = my chest is on my lap) while trying to get the toilet paper. WHY?!?! Who in the world decided this was a great place to put the toilet paper?! Ugh...anyway...I digress...
So...I gave my sample, got weighed (lost 7lbs since I was in there last Oct. YAY!) and gave all of the appropriate info and was sent off to my room...where I got an ultrasound!!!

10 Weeks

Well...I totally skipped last week! Whoops! Here's my week 10 update from Baby Center:

8 Weeks and there's STILL a baby in there!!!!

Soo...I know I'm slacking a little on this, but I figured I'd post 8 week stuff anyway even though I'm 8 weeks and 4 days...and Sunday will be 9 weeks. :) 
Here's what Baby Center has to say about what's been happening this week:

How your baby's growing:

New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl. Either way, your baby — about the size of a kidney bean — is constantly moving and shifting, though you still can't feel it.

See what's going on in your uterus this week. (Or see what fraternal twins look like in the womb this week.) Note: Every baby develops a little differently — even in the womb. Our information is designed to give you a general idea of your baby's development.

How your life's changing

You may notice that your bra is getting more snug. Soon you'll likely need a larger size with better support. Rising levels of hormones cause breast growth and other tissue changes, all in preparation for lactation. Your breasts may continue to grow throughout pregnancy. Don't be surprised if you go up a cup size or two, especially if it's your first baby. Keep this in mind, and allow for room to grow when investing in a new bra.

Feeling fatigued? Hormonal changes — in particular, a dramatic rise in progesterone — may be contributing to your sluggishness. Nausea and vomiting can certainly cost you energy, too. And you may be having trouble getting a good night's sleep at this point, especially if you're uncomfortable or find you need to get up to pee.

Week 7

7 Weeks! Here's what's happening:

There's a Baby in There!!!

Sometimes it's hard to believe that I'm actually pregnant! 
Other than the constant sick feeling, sore boobs and constipation (ugh!), there's not much else going on! Until my ultrasound, I just had to go on faith, knowing my HCG levels (two weeks ago) were perfect, and I haven't had any cramping or bleeding since then! So...I just had to assume that everything was ok in there! 

Ultrasound Tomorrow!!!

Tomorrow is our first ultrasound!!! Yay!!!!
I remember when I made the appointment two weeks ago, it felt like the two weeks were going to take FOREVER! Fortunately, between a visit from my in-laws and morning sickness, I haven't had much time to watch the seconds tick by!
