10 weeks

I'm officially 1/4 of the way done with the pregnancy! holy cow! I had the most amazing day today you guys don't even know!! I got to actually FINALLY go see the doctor and see the baby! Oh my heavens it was the most magical moment in my whole life. So drew and I went in there and the doctor had him come stand so he could see the screen and put that cold gel on my tummy. Within one second she had found the baby which i have to admit, totally surprised me!!  I still am a little in denial sometimes that I'm actually pregnant so when she pulled up a BABY i was shocked! it was so cute and little and well i cried a little when she found the baby, then she had to make sure there was only one (which scared me a little for a bit there) and then she zoomed in more, to show us where the heart it and switched it over to to sound so you can hear the heartbeat. she then switched it back to the picture and the most incredible thing happened, it started moving. Not just a little flutter, that cute little peanut started kicking and moving his/her arms around and like MOVING! like a real baby... like it wasn't just a picture of someone else's baby they put up to keep me thinking i'm pregnant, but it was my little tiny peanut moving around in my tummy. Phew holy cow sooo humbling!

I've been pretty sick this week but i have (knock on wood) so far only thrown up in the morning and then once i start getting food in my tummy I'm ok just really really nautious. The doctor said that all the medicines they have are just to supress the yaking not the being nautious part :( sad story right?

Also... my weight has gone DOWN ugh, man way to make me feel like a bad ma ma! I've always always always had trouble gaining weight and now when i need it I'm still having problems. Please let it go up soon. not a ton at a time, just enough so i know both me and baby stay healthy. anywhoo this week i've been back down to either 102 OR 101 this morning. i'm so frustrated. so there's that little rant that a lot of people may want to punch me for lol.

Baby time :) I'm not just cutting and pasting today. i feel guilty doing that. and i'm replacing the gender with peanut since that is baby's name right now :)

So first of Peanut is the size of a Kumquat.. although I have no clue what a Kumquat is... ha ha ha

Peanut's over an inch long (according to my measurments today it's 3.19 cm and that's the head to the bum), swallowing fluid now and "kicking up a storm". Organs including Kidney, intestines, brain and the liver (which is actually making the red blood cells for now until the bones are fully developed) are all in place and functioning, but they will continue to develop the whole pregnancy. Little Details are already happening with our peanut like tiny fingernails are starting to form on the finger and toes that are no longer webbed (you can see the toes on the ultrasound ) and peachfuz hair is growing on the cute tender little skin.

On a more obvious note lol peanuts arms and legs can both bend now, the forehead temporarily is going to  bulge with the developing brain and sits very high on the head, which measures half the length of peanut's body. like you can tell

HERE!!!

Like i said :) Kumquat

donno what it is... i'm considering getting one just for the heck of it

Love you all! I really do!!
