11 Weeks plus 1 day

Yesterday I was 11 weeks pregnant. Next week I will start to take pics so you all can see my growing belly. Last night I was skyping with Steph and Leah and I showed them my belly. Leah was so excited knowing I have a baby growing in my belly too. We asked her what she thinks I'm going to have and she said a boy. We were both shocked. She's so darn precious.

So my baby is just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig and is now almost fully formed. His or her hands will soon open and close into fist. She's already busy kicking and stretching. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows. Too bad I won't be able to feel this though for a couple more months. I'm sure it will be here before I know it. Heck, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are all right around the corner and we know how fast they sneak up on us.

I feel like I'm starting to get some of my energy back but then again other days I feel like I could go to bed when I get home from work. I'm hoping this changes and I'm sure it will. I haven't really had any other symptoms and I feel so lucky. But I've also heard that if you don't suffer from any symptoms that I will have a hard labor. Oh well, I guess I will just have to wait and see.

Monday is my next appt. I have an ultrasound and a physical. I can't wait to hear the baby's heartbeat and to make sure everything is OK. I will keep you all posted.
