1st OB Appointment - 11 Weeks

I had my first OB appointment on January 7th. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but Bobby came to this appointment so that helped me relax. We went in and did all the normal stuff, urine sample, blood pressure, weight all that stuff.

We even got a surprise sonogram. The baby was moving all over the place. We could see the little legs and arms kicking and waving. I can't wait until I can start to feel the movement. The baby measured right on track at 11 weeks 2 days with my due date confirmed for July 27th. The heart beat was 171, which is excellent.

We then met with the doctor and she explained how appointments would go throughout the rest of the pregnancy and certain tests we would want to think about. She was very nice and answered our questions.

Our next appointment is February 10th, and then the next one we will find out the gender. Sometime the during the 2nd week of March!

11 Weeks Pregnant

I was 11 week pregnant on January 5th, this was also my first day back to work from being on our two week break.

The Traffic Cone is the size of a lime and is about 1.6 in long and has a 1:1 head to body ratio. The baby now weights about .25 oz.

Even though I can't see it the baby is moving a lot. The skin is see-through, but is slowly becoming more like a babies skin. The fingers and toes aren't webbed anymore and tooth buds, hair follicles and nail beds are forming.

I was still really tired this week. My breasts were still very sore and my nausea still followed me around every minute of every day. I started having weird dreams this week as well. I normally can't remember them once I wake up, the only thing remember is that it was really weird. I have been craving fruit this week and last week, especially mangoes, strawberries and pineapple. My close are starting to get tight, I can't even wear my slacks anymore. I have ordered something that will hopefully allow me to get back in them.

I have been having sleep issues ever since we moved, I can go to sleep fine but every couple of hours I wake up and can't go back to sleep for another hour or so. I had my first OB appointment this week on 7th, post to come.
