First Ultrasound- 10 weeks 2 days!

Hello Everyone!!

I had my first ultrasound yesterday! It was incredible and everything went so fast which was awesome! I absolutely love my midwife, she is so sweet and gets right to the point about everything.

I was so nervous for this appoinment because I was scared that not only the heart would not be beating but I would find out that I was having a molar pregnancy, or maybe even that I wasn't pregnant(sounds silly but those of you who have had a previous miscarriage know exactly what I'm talking about)! Anyway, my simptoms have not been so bad, I just don't like eating very much, most foods just do not appeal to me.

My midwife had all positive things to say, the only things that made me a little bit nervous was that the baby was measuring 9 weeks 4 days instead of 10 weeks 1 day. I was then reassured that the baby not being right on target is COMPLETELY normal. They also informed me that I had lost some weight (5lbs) and needed to gain that back as soon as possible. I'm a small girl so I guess they just want to make sure that I have enough fat on me to carry a baby....FINE WITH ME:)

Here is our little bean at 10 weeks 1 day, measuring at 9 weeks 4 days

My next appointment is in 6 weeks!

Until next time,

Nina and Stevie

Headaches and more headaches

I had my first appointment this week on Monday!

It was more just like an orientation where they told me what to expect, what to eat, what not to eat, how much to sleep, and what I should expect on upcoming appoinments. They also have me some really cool books and flyers that were really helpful to both Stephen and I.

So this week I am in my 8th week! I will officially be 8 weeks on Sunday the 14th. The past couple of weeks have been a little rough. I have had a couple of days worth of morning sickness, and day sickness and middle of the day sickness......pretty much 24 hour sickness.

I think the worst part of the past couple of weeks has actually been the past couple of days, because I have had severe migrain headaches. I had two aweful ones yesterday and one this morning and it is just really interfiering with my day to day life. So I'm just praying that the headaches get better!


My next appointment will be a COMPLETE physical and I will also get to hear the baby's heartbeat and also see the baby. Unfortunately, Stephen will not be able to come due to the fact that he has work:(


Anyway i'll write in a couple more weeks!!



oh-and my belly is ALREADY growing!!!
