The First Trimester

During the time that I was waiting for the first appointment, I went through all the pregnancy signs, trials and tribulations. The morning sickness was not too bad until we went on vacation to Winnipeg,Manitoba, Canada. Until that trip, I only had some nausea off and on. On that trip I actually got sick, 4 times.  I've been somewhat ok since then, but still feel a bit off now and then.

We had our first appointment and Rob and I got so excited when the doctor decided to do an Ultrasound on the first appointment.  It was done transvaginally to get a better look at the baby.  The pictures from the sonogram are here. Sonograms When the wand touched the uterus, the baby did a double somersault and was moving around so much that the doctor could not get a real good measurement of the baby.  So, for now, the Estimated Due Date (EDD) is January12, 2002.

Just recently, Rob and I bought a digital camara to do belly pictures as I started showing in Week 9.  We wanted to give our family and friends the ability to share in our growing family.  So, to not clutter this page with belly pictures that you may not want to see, they are linked here.

My next appointment is July 17, so I will update as we go along.
