11 weeks

Wow, can't believe we are moving into our 11th week!  This pregnancy already seems to be going by so quickly.  We are finally getting over being sick in our house. Micah and I have both had a terrible summer cold with sore throats (not sure if his has been sore or not) and lots of coughing, Micah was terribly sick over the weekend, and Scott's throat has been sore.  I hope this is the last of the sickness I see while pregnant.  I'm behind on taking belly pics.  Nothing is really being missed because from what I can tell there hasn't been much change.  I think as bloat and flab go away it is being replaced by baby related stuff at the same rate.  I should be nice and big come Halloween.  Will have to come up with some cute costume ideas.  :-)

We had our 10 week checkup today. Everything looked good. Baby is measuring 10 weeks 4 days and had a heart rate of 171 bpm. We were able to see the yolk sac and the umbilical cord. This time around we also got video. Will try to post later but it won't really be a whole lot to see.

9 Weeks (and 8 week pic)

Yesterday marked nine weeks for this pregnancy.  I've been doing good besides having to fight the cold I caught from Micah.  I still haven't had any morning sickness and really don't expect to since I didn't with Micah.  With this cold I have drainage that is causing me to gag and it feels like it is trying to move into my chest.  The joys of a summer cold during pregnancy...

I'm a week behind on my pictures so I am posting my week 8 picture at the bottom.  Still some bloat but even if that was gone I would be much bigger than I was at this stage with Micah.  My regular pants are now uncomfortable even with the buttons undone.  I dug my small maternity clothes out last night so I can at least be a little comfortable.  I would have sworn I had more small maternity clothes than I do.  Guess it was when I got big that I really found the good sales.
