Big Changes!

I am so happy I am finally feeling good! The past three days I have gotten my energy back and havent been sick at all!!! Yay for 11 weeks!!! I was honestly kind of worried as to why I feel so good lol. So, latest news is Aaron and I got our first family member, Titan. We adopted him from the ASPCA. He is a few week old german shepard. Hes been keeping me company. The other news is I have decided to move down to NC with Aaron in a few weeks!!! So ive been busy packing and finishing up this semester. Aaron is still getting everything sorted out down there, but we are excited. Not sure what the future holds, but its a pretty big step!

First heartbeat!

Today was so awesome! I finally got to hear Aaron and I's baby's heartbeat!! The nurse said that usually this early you cant hear it, but as soon as she put the doppler on my belly we heart it loud and clear! It was so cool! Im so glad baby has a strong heartbeat! We are off to a good start! I just wish Aaron could have been there too.

So everyone is saying the baby is going to be a girl. Well according to the Chinese chart it is a girl. Also the heartrate was 170 which also means girl. Heartrates 140 and lower are supposedly boys. Sorry Aaron your just gonna have to wait for your boy!! Haha :) I on the other hand am uber excited about "Sophia"!

I wanna be like Jessica Alba

So I guess this is totally un-baby related, but I was thinking about the family cruise we hope to do after the baby is born. And I was looking of course at the new Victoria Secret bathing suit line which I usually order from every year. I was pretty depressed cause I am not looking forward to having all that  baby weight. I was researching post pregnancy  things and I came across these pictures of Jessica Alba. 1) I had no idea she had two kids and 2) I didnt know she was thirty! Any ways I was really impressed at how good she looked four months after having her last baby and so now I dont feel so scared. Im very inspired!! I will look GOOD on the cruise like I never had a baby. LOL
So, other than that I have been feeling pretty good today. Tried to clean up a bit cause Aaron and Buzz are staying the weekend with me. Aaron, I love you but you are a pig. So messy!!! UGH. But anyways, hopefully it will be a fun weekend despite having class. Class ruins everything :(

Jumped the Gun :(

So I lied. Morning sickness is definately NOT gone. UGH. Its been a horrible day. I dont know how im going to survive class tonight. But on a positive note, today is officially nine weeks. Ive been following other pregnancy blogs on Utube and a lot of the girls seem like they are already showing, but im not. I wonder if im gonna be one of the lucky few who dont show till the third trimester lol. I havent even gained any weight!
Hmm what else is new....oh Aaron may get special leave to come to my drs appointment on Thursday! This makes me uber happy, I dont want him to miss the heartbeat!

Your Baby
Big news! You may be able to hear the heartbeat this week with the help of a Doppler, an ultrasound device that captures the chug-a-chug sound of baby's heart. The first time you hear baby's heart, your own heart may skip a beat—it's the first real evidence that there's someone growing inside you! If you can't hear the heartbeat, no worries, your doc will just check again in a few weeks. Other amazing developments this week:

Baby is beginning to move, but you won't be able to feel anything for some time.

Baby is growing nipples and hair follicles (although there's still a chance you'll be giving birth to a baldy!) His pancreas, gallbladder, bile ducts and anus are all in place, ready to poop and pee a dozen times a day when he's born. Your baby's head is half the size of his body and his little chin is tucked into his chest. His tiny tail is beginning to shrink away, giving Junior a more human and less amphibious look.

Until now, all pre-babies look the same "down there." This week, however, your baby will begin to develop either male or female genitalia. In layman terms, your baby is beginning to develop her hoo-ha or his wee-wee. While you won't be able to find out the gender of your baby for several more weeks, the version you'll give birth to is being developed right now.

At this stage, your developing fetus is 1-inch in length, about the size of a martini olive (you remember martinis, don't you?) and weighs a mere 2 grams—a little less than a penny.

8 and a half weeks!

Sorry I haven't blogged in FOREVER but ive been in Cali with Aaron!! I got to meet his lovely family and they are awesome and fun. Im sorry I spent more time in the bathroom and sleeping then visiting them :( Thankfully morning sickness has gotten loads better. So yes, I SURVIVED the plane ride ( no easy feat lemme tell you) and had a great Christmas/New Years! Its really pretty where Aaron's family its, but quite hilly. I kept getting carsick :( We  also went to San Fransisco on New Years. I got to see peer39, seals, and China Town. We also got lost a few times lol.
The baby is doing good as far as I know :) Everyone is uber excited about him/her. I have another appointment next week (10 weeks) and get to hear the heartbeat! Aaron cant make it though :( so sad. I cant WAIT to get another ultrasound, i know baby has grown so much!!
