We had our first ultrasound on June 12th! Our little one was moving hands and feet, was turning a little. We got to hear the heart beat, that was really neat! I think it really made it real for both of us. Chris wants to own an ultrasound machine so he can see our little one moving all the time. Before we know it we will, Lord willing, be able to hold our little bundle of joy and gaze at him or her as much as we want! Praise the Lord for this amazing blessing of pregnancy!We found out that we were pregnant on May 7th. Since then, it has been a whole new experience for both of us! I have been more tired than ever. Morning sickness showed up right on schedule, and out of nowhere for me. I really wished for about a week that I didn't have to eat for the rest of my life! Nothing ever sounded good to eat, and I was starving, and so the story goes. Chris did a great job of tending to my every need, even if it meant running out to get whatever sorta sounded ok to eat at that very moment. I'm glad that phase is pretty much over now.
I am currently 12 weeks along. Food is sounding much better now and I am getting more energy here and there. Fruit appeals to me the most as well as anything sweet:). I have a hard time getting my protein in, it seems that the baby like carbs, at least for now. I've noticed my tummy getting bigger, it's not completely obvious yet to everyone else, but I can tell, and so can Chris. We even bought a couple of maternity items already. We have another appointment in 2 weeks. We will keep you all updated!
Love, the Morloks
