12 Week Appointment

Jake and I went to our 12 week doctor appointment today. I'm officially 12 weeks 4 days. Everything was normal and we listened to the baby's heartbeat. I was a little disappointed because we didn't get to see an ultrasound of the baby like we had done the previous two visits. Of course I asked when we'd get to see another picture of the baby and doc said not until our scheduled ultrasound to find out the sex (at 18 weeks). That is August 9th and yes, I'm already counting down the days! I'm so eager to find out what were having, but also just see that everything is okay.

The doctor also said that the headaches I've been experiencing were due to the pregnancy. I thought it might be due to all of the traveling and weather changes we experienced. She quickly dismissed this idea and said it was all because of the pregnancy. I really like my doctor - she is so no-nonsense which is exactly what I need. She said the headaches would get better soon when my body adapts to increase in blood volume and other stuff...

So, I was hoping to have another little ultrasound picture to post, but I don't. Instead how about a poll?!? What do you think we're having? I'd love to hear everyone's guess... c'mon you have a 50/50 chance of being right.

A little girl... Thats my guess! I have a feeling I'm having a boy and for some reason I think we will have opposites...
