Baby bump is here!

Baby is now the size a prune and I officially have a little baby bump. I am starting to have more energy and get back to my normal self, while morning sickness becomes few and few, thank God!
Jeremy was up north all week-end with the boys for the fishing extravaganza in Brainerd. I guess they didn't last too long with the cold weather, so therefore no one was a "winner". I had a great day Saturday with my mom. We went out to lunch, saw a movie (Bride Wars, which I recommend) and did a ton of shopping. I had purchased the book "Skinny Bitch: Bun in the Oven". The writers are so humorous, I love it!

1st Ultra Sound

We had our first ultra sound last Thursday. I was pretty right on, guessing when the first day of my last period was. I am now 9 weeks along. The nurse said that baby has a strong heart beat of 170 beats per minute and it is also a lil kicker. Baby Robertson kept kicking it's right leg up in the air, either s/he is going to be a performer or a little soccer player :)
Jeremy had to take a seat after standing for a while looking at the screen. I hope he lasts in the delivery room, cause this is nothing so far!! I will need to remind him to breathe ;)
Our weekend consisted of a lot of laying around and resting. I had the flu for 2 days and ended up in Urgent Care getting a shot in my butt to help with the puking. It thankfully helped and I finally have my appetite back.

~ Week 8 ~

We now have a green olive!!! Our little embryo has now officially graduated to fetus-hood. Adding to the excitement, a Doppler ultrasound device might be able to pick up the beating heart. With basic physical structures in place and increasingly distinct facial features, baby is kind of starting to look like... well... a baby!

Our first pre-natal appointment went well. We didn't get the ultrasound that was expected but we do have an appointment for our first ultrasound on Wednesday! So, hopefully the heart beat will be strong and loud enough for us to hear!!

Morning sickness is still around unfortunately but thankfully. The nurse had said that if there was no morning sickness a red flag would go up and there would be need to worry. So WOOHOO, being that I am sick, baby is healthy!!!

~ 7 Weeks ~

We found out that we were pregnant about 2 weeks ago. After surprising our families on Christmas I think the idea of being pregnant and having a baby has started to settle in.

The little baby is now the size of a raspberry. This week baby R goes through a huge growth spurt where it will double in size. Babies brain is growing and developing. The heart has also divided into right and left chambers.

Mom is still feeling run down and morning sickness is still visiting daily, although it is starting to taper off thanks to Rachel!! The vitamin B6 and Unisome has seemed to help greatly.

We have our first pre-natal appointment on Thursday. They will be giving an ultra sound being that I can't exactly remember the first day of my last period all in thanks to my irregular visits from Aunt Flo every month. We are excited to find out if we will be able to hear the babies heartbeat for the first time!!!
