Baby Smith Update - 12 weeks

Twelve weeks have come and gone so now I feel as though I am at one of the safer stages in pregnancy. We have told more people that we will be parents in April and word has spread fast, all of which is a good thing.

I feel much better, although I still have a few days where I feel a little nauseated, but that I can handle. I am thirsty all the time - I can't drink enough water and thirst wakes me in the middle of the night. I still use the restroom anywhere between five and eight times a night - I think this is not just pregnancy related, but working out after work and drinking a lot of water during and after my workout is part of the culprit and laying down makes my bladder feel very full. I seem to wake up around 5 AM and tend to lay there for about an hour before I fall back to sleep. This has been going on for about a month now. I am so tired that I can't hold my eyes open, but I can't seem to fall back into dreamland. Weird, I know. I hope this changes! Sleeping on my left side hasn't been that big of an adjustment because I would usually fall asleep on my back, but wake on my left side. I do wake up sometimes and I'm on my back, but I've read that it's OK. If I needed to roll over, my body would wake me. I sure hope that's the case.

We had an ultrasound last Friday to check a few things and were able to see the profile of BS's face:

Head/face are to the right

You can see BS's nose bone protruding outward

The thick white areas are bones
