11 weeks check in...

So here it is... my belly @ 11 weeks (more specifically 12 weeks in 2 days)! I have been really bad w/ doing my belly pictures so i thought no better time than now!!


My belly feels GIANT to me... I know it is only going to get bigger.. but i am looking forward to it!! I am sure a good portion of my belly is bloating but some of it is has to be baby/uterus. I no longer fit into any of my pants and now some of my shirts are starting to look awful on me. I either have to wear maternity pants or my bella band otherwise i would have nothing to wear.

I finally did a little maternity shopping over the weekend, but I did not come back w/ much, just 1 shirt and 2 pairs of pants. Kohl's didn't have that great of a maternity section, i find i have to shop in multiple places to get a nice variety. I never thought maternity shopping would be so hard, but i look forward to doing more of it!!



I have been keeping track of the the baby's development (via multiple websites). My favorite website says that the baby is the size of a lime by week 11. I actually read last night that by 10/11 weeks your uterus is no longer behind your pubic bones and is now partially only covered by your skin. So i suppose my belly is not all bloat?? Its so amazing to know my baby is growing so fast. in two days the baby will be the size of a plum and apparently all of the major organs are formed.. it time to GROW!!!


Scary...I actually had someone at work the other day ask me if i was pregnant!!!! Could have been the maternity shirt I had on but none the less still crazy that someone could tell!


We are anxiously looking forward to our next appointment when we will get to hear the baby's heartbeat again
(i am going to try to remember to record it this time... maybe if you're lucky i will figure out how to get the heartbeat on the blog hahaa) Then the next milestone is 19 weeks when we get our 1st ultra sound. If we are lucky we will find out the sex of the baby!!!! I am also looking forward to feeling the baby move!!! There is just so much to look forward to.

Well that all that's new for now i will be doing my best to update more often!!
