I’ve had a little bit of spotting here and there, but no
major bleeding. We had our 13 week appt today and got to see lots of baby
because they checked the baby's anatomy. We got to do our first abdominal
ultrasound, which felt silly because I just didn’t feel big enough for it to
show really well, but it did! The baby was still very active and we took a few
short videos which I put on youtube. http://youtu.be/jMtzwTi6kQI
You can see a profile now because the
bones are all hardening, including the nasal bones. We also found out that the
baby is probably a boy!! I have been thinking it was a boy and everyone kept
saying girl! We don't mind another boy and didn't really have a preference.
My son was very adamant in the beginning that it be a girl, but we have been
telling him for awhile that it might be a boy so when we told him today he was
ok with it, I think he was excited just to know what to expect! Of course when
I asked him what were we going to name the baby now he said "Crystal"
when I told him that that is more of a girl's name he said with attitude:
"fine, Fancy Crystal" LOL!! Not sure where he comes up with these, of
course he does love crystals! The baby looks perfect as usual and the hematoma
appears to be completely gone. Great news, but I know they can come back and or
hide so I am not holding my breath! Also just last friday and into the weekend
I had a very mild bleeding episode, so It makes me think it may still be there.
Sometimes they can hide behind the placenta. I am still having really bad
morning sickness, but I took myself off the zofran because it didn't seem to be
helping and it was making me severely constipated. I still haven’t gained any
weight and have lost a total of 8-10lbs since being pregnant (I didn’t really
need to lose any weight). I have also been having some back, hip and knee pain
on one side, I'm not sure if it's the sciatica or not.... The joys of being
pregnant.
