butterflies

I can feel the baby! I know people are going to think I'm crazy for thinking I can feel the baby at 12 weeks, but I swear I feel him/her. I still can't find the heartbeat with the doppler, but I swear, it feels like there's butterflies in my belly...With Andrew I didn't know what this feeling was, but I really think I'm feeling Itty Bitty in there! It only happens right before I fall asleep at night or right when I wake up in the morning, but its there and I just KNOW its Itty Bitty. Such a cool feeling. :)

Had my 3rd ultrasound this week...Wednesday was my 11-12 week visit and the OB said it might be too early to hear the h/b with the doppler so he just did an u/s. YAY!! I got to see Itty Bitty jumping and swimming all over the place...It was awesome. I tried to see if there were any little boy parts, but I couldn't tell. My mom still thinks its a girl. The h/b was in the 160's and she said that definitely means its a girl. We shall see...I still think boy. At least one of us is right! :)

As far as the morning (ahem, all day) sickness is concerned, IT HAS PASSED! (Knock on wood.) Its been two weeks since I last threw up. :) Now that I say that, I'll get sick for sure, but whatever! I am enjoying it! Still EXTREMELY tired, but managing. I'm weaning off the progesterone (down to once a day, then off completely in one week), so that helps. I am so glad to be out of school for the holidays. We go on a cruise Jan. 5-10 so I will miss the first week back. Darn. :)

To anyone still checking in, THANKS! Hope you and yours have a fabulous Christmas and here's to a wonderful 2008!

(Also, did you disable your feed on purpose or is it possible for you to set it so I can see you on Reader?)

Have a wonderful Christmas and Cruise!

How special Anna! No craziness here...I started feeling this one for sure by 12/13 weeks and in hindsight I'm fairly positive that I felt a few very distinct thumps around 10 weeks. I USED to think feeling the baby that early was impossible, but when it happens to you you just know!!! Congrats!!
