NT Scan

We had our NT scan today and everything looks good! Bloodwork results won't be in for about a week, but the nuchal thickness was only 1.2mm (anything under 3mm is good) and there were no other abnormal markers. The tech informed us that our baby has super long legs and giant feet! Future basketball player or supermodel?

We actually had an ultrasound with the RE this morning as well (I know, poor me). The baby was really active and flipping all over the place. I wish I had that much energy at 7 in the morning! Next week will be my last appointment at the RE's office. I will officially be a "normal" pregnant woman. I will miss seeing the baby every week, as well as the staff at the office that I've grown pretty attached to, but I think it may be good for my mental health to not stress about the ultrasound every single week. I mentioned to my ob that I've been spoiled with ultrasounds and he said, "Don't worry, I'll keep spoiling you." =) It looks like he's got me on an every 2-3 week schedule.

How far along are you? 11w1d, but baby is measuring 12 weeks. Wow.

Total weight gain: Still 5 lbs. No weight gain in the past 2 weeks!

How big is baby?: 49mm, about the size of a lime:)

Maternity clothes: Nope. I did buy a bella band, but it's a little big.

Stretch marks?: Nope.

Sleep?: sleeping pretty well, but getting up 2-3 times a night to pee.

Best moment this week?: Getting to see the baby twice this morning!

Movement?: Can't feel it yet.

Food cravings?: There was one day this week where I just HAD to have an orange. I had several that day, but that was my only real craving.

Food aversions?: I'm getting over most aversions. I'm kinda loving any food right now!

Labor signs?: No way.

Belly button in or out?: In

What I miss: Coffee. I think I'm going to start having a cup a day.

What I'm looking forward to: Graduating from the RE. Oh and no more PIO injections as of today. No more sore butt, yay!

Milestone: Having a good NT scan today.
