The first trimester's been a bit tougher than when I was pregnant with Jane. I was still pretty tired and emotional but also had more morning sickness and my sense of smell is even stronger this time. When I was about 13 weeks along I had a bit of bleeding too, which never happened with Jane, and we went to the hospital to get it checked out. It turned out that everything was okay and the ultrasound confirmed that the baby is healthy and very active. It was fun to see the baby move, do somersaults, open its mouth and move its legs, body and head. I was so relieved to hear the heartbeat which was at 166 and very normal. Recently, I also started having the weird dreams that I had last time, but this time are not about babies but mostly about water. I drowned once, I saw a talking female shark in another one and I learned about a woman who ate a dog for breakfast after drowning it. Weird, I know. I haven't woken up crying or laughing out loud yet, like I did last pregnancy but these dreams are just as weird if not more. :)
We're excited for the new baby and can't wait to get to 20 weeks to find out the gender. We don't know if we want a boy or a girl so I guess either way we'll be very happy.
