Well, I have passed the 11 week mark. I am now in my last week of the first trimester!
I bought a doppler so I can hear my baby's heartbeat any time I felt worried, but I bought a 3mhz and it turns out that a 2mhz is better for earlier detection. I was still able to find thse heartbeat though :-) (but only for a second)
Gender - When I first found out I was pregnant, I swore it was a girl. Now that it's been a while I'm not so sure anymore. My grandma Ruth says it's a girl and both me and my mom had dreams I had a girl. Aunt Nana says it's a boy and I really have no idea now haha.
I fell asleep on the couch today and had the show "the first 48 hours" on the tv. It went into my dream and I was dreaming I was in some sort of under cover sting to find a murderer. Dreams are so vivid now that I am pregnant. I can't believe it. It's like I am watching a movie instead of sleeping!

My first blog
Welcome to my blog!
I should have started this 11 weeks ago. I am 11 weeks pregnant (tomorrow) and hopefully I can keep an ongoing journal of our hopes, fears, dreams and events.
I have had little side effects from my pregnancy. The biggest being the nausea. CONSTANT nausea. I've only actually thrown up twice though and the last couple days it seems it is easing up a bit. My other side effects include heartburn , constant sleepiness and restless legs (especially after eating).
...We heard the heartbeat for the first time on August 22nd. It was the most amazing moment of my life. *tear*
I was prepared for the doctor to not be able to find the heartbeat with the doppler since it was "very early" still. But she found it right away and I teared up and burst into laughter.
My laughing belly shook the doppler off and she had to re-find the heartbeat 3 times. :-)
Darren was amazed at the sound and had his very first encounter with our little alien. Before that moment all he knew was his wife was a crazy psycho that slept 24/7. :P
Our first ultrasound will be September 5th, we can't wait!!
