Well, have offically lost two weeks somewhere. Despite technically being 12 weeks along, doc is now saying that I'm 14 weeks, due to Little Lamb growing like a weed! Like last post, I still don't have much going on pregnancy wise. My fatigue is fading (slowly) and my insomnia isn't quite as frequent (thank God). My boobs still hurt, and my face looks like that of a pubescent teenager. If I didn't know that there was a baby inside me, I wouldn't know the difference. I almost feel better now than I did before I was pregnant (minus the sore boobs!). I just hope that labor goes as smoothly as this pregnancy has so far! ;)
Our most recent checkup was a bit different than previous visits. No more vaginal ultrasounds!!!! Woot!!!! Doc used a portable heart monitor, and after about 10 minutes, was able to pics up a heart rate of 150. Significantly lower than last time, but still within range. I've been told that boy's heart rates are lower than girls, so maybe... We go back in 3 weeks and hopefully we will be able to tell if Little Lamb is a boy or a girl. That is, if he/she will sit still long enough to get a good look. He/she was very active at this last appointment! Doc also wants me to monitor my blood pressure, as the nurse got a high reading. I've been checking it every night since, and it's been back down to normal. Must have been a fluke thing.
I guess that about wraps it up. Hopefully I will have more to share next time. Now for the dreaded belly pic... :/ At least Duke is in the pic to distract from my scariness! ;)
