Heartbeat- 12 weeks

Today we had our 12-week appointment and met another of the midwives at the office. Since they ended up doing an ultrasound at my 10-week, they didn't do one this time, but this time we were finally able to hear the heartbeat. She said it sounded good and healthy and every thing else seemed fine too. We are still so excited that this baby is healthy and it was once again great to just have confirmation that things are going well. I am starting to have more energy now and the nausea is almost gone, with only some slight sensitivity to smells at this point. The last couple weeks I was so tired especially in the evenings that I just laid around and waiting til 9pm so I could go to bed! I had a couple Saturdays where I did nothing all day. It was very unlike me. But now I am doing better, able to clean around the house and get things done and even wanting to go out. I am thankful that the energy is coming back! At least for a few months. My belly is starting to be a bit more obvious to people who know me, so that is fun, and the pants are getting tighter, so I will be coming up with ways to keep wearing my clothes over the next couple months before I really need to buy a new maternity wardrobe. That's the update for now!
