11 Weeks

Today Derek and I went to the Doctor for my first "Prenatal" check-up. She did an ultrasound and measured the baby to be almost 11 weeks and 4cm long. The size of the fig seen below! As soon as we could see the baby, I was in shock! It seemed so big to me! I know it is going to get SO much bigger, but it was just so neat to see the head, body, legs and arms! As soon as we got a good look at the legs, baby moved them and crossed them! It was so amazing to see the tiny little legs kicking back and forth inside me! Probably the most amazing sight I have ever seen:) Other than that all the blood work that they did was normal and the doctor was happy with my weight gain of 3 pounds. The last issue we talked about was this really fun morning sickness. I guess I have good days and bad days. One day I will want to eat everything and others, like today, I struggle to find ANYTHING that sounds good. All I can say is Thank God Derek is so understanding with this issue. Every meal is a challenge, and he is very patient with me. Lately he has been doing all the cooking, and I am very thankful. He also understands that whatever sounds good to me is what we will be eating. No questions. He just goes with it:) So that's it for now, enjoy the pic!
