1st Trimester Recap

Well, I've officially made it through the first trimester and I am very thankful for that! I guess I shouldn't leave Alex out, he made it through the first trimester too :)  It wasn't easy for him either, he was very helpful with housework and put up with a lot of my complaining about my stomach being upset.

It was really smooth sailing up until week 6 when the morning sickness really started to kick in.  We were visiting my Sister and fam in Tucson over new years and unfortunately I was miserable.  It wasn't just the sick feeling in the morning, it was all day long and the smell of just about everything made me want to throw up.

At about week 12 I started feeling much better, slowly getting my normal appetite back.  I had managed to make it through the first 11 weeks of pregnancy without having to take a day off work and then I got a nasty stomach bug and ended up having to take a day off.  My 12 week appointment went pretty well other than having lost a little weight from being sick. My Dr. said everything seemed good and we were able to hear baby's heart beat again.

That brings us to the present. I am 15 weeks and 3 days and I feel great!  My energy is back, I'm not tired all of the time and I am really happy to have my appetite back! :)
