It's real!

Okay, so even though I knew I was pregnant (because the tests said so and because my body has been abducted by aliens), I think I always had this bizarre fear in the back of my mind that I would go for my first ultrasound and see only a blackened void of nothing. Irrational? Yes. But it's hard to grasp the reality of something you can't see, and you start to wonder if it's all in your mind. Thankfully, it is not. Behold! S.S. Morgan* in the flesh!


In case you see only a grey blob with no apparent resemblace to any form of human, you're looking at a side profile of the baby on its back; the head is on the left and the belly is on the right. If you look closely, you can see a tiny TINY little leg/knee/foot bending on the far right.

*S.S.Morgan is what we called the baby when it was around 5 weeks (the size of a Sesame Seed).

12 weeks

Faker!

Just....experimenting with a pillow. At least I know the maternity shirt will fit for awhile!

11 weeks

It looks almost pointy!

Yay for grandmas!

Here it is! Your first look at the room we're getting ready. Both grandmothers-in-waiting slaved all day to make it just how I wanted. I love it!

The dark brown wallpaper is on one wall only. The other three are the caramel colour.

More pictures to come once the empty room fills up!

10 weeks

Belly progress?

I think it's still just bloating!


4 weeks and 5 weeks
7 weeks and 8 weeks
8 weeks and 9 weeks

9 weeks

Apparently the baby is now the size of a strawberry! Although... strawberries do come in a wide variety of sizes. I'm thinking about an inch or so long.

The nausea seems to be hitting me less, but the tiredness has replaced it. Not so much of an "I want to sleep", more of an "if I move I might just fall over". Kinda feels like i've been running all day long and my body is mad at me.

I am now having a love affair with my couch.
