I had my 12 week appointment today and I got to hear the baby's heartbeat! It was beating at 155 bpm...perhaps another girl? Caroline's was usually a little higher than that (ha...I wonder if that should have been any foresight as to how busy she would turn out to be?)
I also have to brag on this pregnancy, too. I am days shy out of my first trimester and I never did get sick. Well, just once. But, let's just say that I found out earlier this time that I can't eat lettuce this time around either. Lettuce on a sandwich - great. Lots of lettuce in a salad - not so great. And it's not a nose-related food aversion. It just doesn't agree with my body. RIP big salads with lots of cheese and ranch on top. I'll miss you.
Sorry to always compare this pregnancy to Caroline's. I don't have anything else to compare it to. But, it's fun to see the similarities and the differences. I will walk away from this wondering if the similarities in the pregnancies are indicative of similarities in personalities. And vice versa with the differences. Like the morning sickness...I never got sick with Caroline. So, by not getting sick with this one, does that mean I'm going to have another girl? Thankfully I'm not near as tired as I was with Caroline. I still get worn out at the end of the day, but not so bad that I have to come home and nap.
My next appointment is on July 19th. Can't wait!!!
