12 Week Check-Up

I went for my 12 week check up on Monday. We got the heartbeat for about 2 seconds. The baby was just turning too much! It was 142 bpm. Hayden's was always higher than that, but this pregnancy has been nothing like it was with him so I can't really compare. I weighed the same, so that was good, but I'm definitely starting to have more of a pooch. I would like to just be bigger already so that people wouldn't think I'm just fat. I broke down and started wearing my maternity jeans a couple of weeks ago. I could still wear my regular ones, but they were just hurting! I'm also overemotional, which means I cry at just about anything. I was reading up on someone's blog this morning and kept tearing up. Go figure... I am still getting nauseated at night, but I am figuring out what makes it worse and trying to avoid those foods. Overall, I feel much better this time around, and I'm wondering what that will mean for the temperament of this baby.

Anyway, that's about all they did. I'm supposed to go in sometime before my next appointment to do an early blood sugar test, so I'll probably do that next week. I also haven't exercised in about 3 weeks, so I will definitely be getting back in the swing of that next week. I go back on January 26th for my next appointment and sometime at the beginning of February, we will have another ultrasound and find out what Pinto is! We haven't talked about names yet, but will be sure to let you know when we decide for sure.

I'll leave you with a pic of Hayden being wild with his shopping cart this morning! What a goober! I really should have made a video. He gets crazy sometimes!
