We're officially 12 weeks into the pregnancy, putting me out of the first trimester. I'm hoping this means I start feeling better and my appetite improves. The fun part is we got to hear the baby's heartbeat this week. I had been occasionally (and irrationally) thinking "maybe I'm imagining the whole thing, the first tests were false positives or a misunderstanding, this is a hysterical pregnancy, etc". Hearing the 160 beats/min whooshing away put those fears to rest. There really is a wee tadpole growing in there.
The midwife (Ruth this time) is very reassuring, and tells us everything looks good. Heartbeat rate, baby size & placement, my diet and general health are all looking fine. She also says it feels like only one baby, so hooray no twins!
