12 weeks and they think it is a boy!

Last week I had my Ultrasound for the First Tri-mester Screening/NT Scan. It was a very mixed emotions day. It seems my NT Measurement (for those that do not know what I am talking about it is a measurement they do to screen for Downs Syndrome and other disorders) was out of normal limits. It should be less then 3mm. Mine as right on the boarder at 3.1. So I have to go back in 4 weeks for another ultrasound to see how the baby's heart looks.

The happy news we got at this ultrasound was that the baby is a boy! That is very exciting. I knew it was a boy. I have felt different from the day I found out I was pregnant. I was dizzy for at least the first week of this pregnancy and never felt that way with Madelyn.

The pregnancy is going well. I feel sick about every two hours unless I eat something and I am very tired. I really feel like I need a nap most days but of course can never take on. I just go to bed at about 9pm now.
