We made our "Expecting Announcements" they came out even better than I had hoped! Rami was cooperative for maybe 20 minutes, anything else after that was pointless. But my sister did an awesome job!

I am now 13-14 Weeks. Last night I had a dream about the baby kicking. I really can't wait for my next appointment. I feel like in the beginning of pregnancy the time between appointments just goes on forever!

When I ask Rami if he wants a baby the answer is still "No" We are working on fixing that. I think it may be easier when we know the Gender of the baby.

Updates!

Yesterday was my third clinical day, I got to spend it in the Catheter Lab! I got to see a pacemaker changed out, I got to watch a Cardiac Catheter done, and also a TEE which to me just looked like a sonogram of the heart. It was pretty awesome. Even better news I did not faint. I think at one point I felt it coming so I popped in a glucose tablet and it seemed to do the trick! I really think it just has something to do with me standing, because I was fine untilI I was just standing watching them prep the procedure room and I didn't have anything to lean on, they usually keep those rooms really cold and I just started feeling really hot...and the other 2 times I fainted that was the first sign I had was me getting hot...idk.

Other big news, for my birthday in December I had treated myself to an At-Home Doppler, I actually don't use it as much as I thought I would but after my really great day yesterday, I decided to try and I was able to get the babies HB at home it was around 157 and it was so distinct. It was nice.

I also feel like I definitely look more pregnant today than I have the past couple weeks. I worked out a bit yesterday and when I got on my spin bike I just felt so in the way of myself it was uncomfortable.

Today is my first Exam of the semester..i'm super nervous....Just hoping to pass!

Anyways I only had one person respond to my last posts poll but I'm going to keep it going

Boy or Girl?

Boy 0
Girl 2

Good News!

So today I was able to go to the Doctors! I got approved for Clinicals in writing, they also did some blood work...i'll get called if anything looks abnormal. Lets cross our fingers that its all good! :)

Another happy sign..my mom had a dream the other day that I was having a girl...kinda exciting. I don't think anything else exciting has happened since the last post...I feel great.

Also by my counting I'm 12-13 weeks yesterday which means that we are closing up our first trimester and discomfort and weight gain ahead whomp whomp whomp.

Rami and I had a conversation about bringing a baby home today..he told me "No baby! Baby is dirty!" he always says things are dirty when he doesn't want them...but usually that's only referring to food.

I'm thinking of starting a poll.
What do you think we are having?
