Almost 2nd trimester...

Saturday I will be thirteen weeks which is the start of my second trimester. Holy cow, I can't believe I made it this far. There hasn't been one single issue yet. As exciting as this may seem, I'm still a bit scared. With 7 full months to go, a lot can still happen. I'm staying positive though. That's all I can do at this point. We got to see the baby on ultrasound on Monday and it was amazing. I got to see s/he kicking off the side of my uterus like s/he wasn't happy about the ultrasound. It made me smile. I REALLY can't wait to find out what we're having!! We asked the ultrasound tech to take a peek and she said it looks like it could be a boy, but it's still very early and not to go with that 100% yet. We will be asking at every single appointment until we get a definitive answer. The doctor was very happy at how things are progressing and we get to go back in 2 weeks. I can't wait to get into my second trimester so some of the symptoms can go away. Like being exhausted all the time and sometimes not sleeping well. I'm in need of a good nights sleep. I can't wait till I start showing also. Maybe I won't feel so fat. I also can't wait to start a baby registry.
