Just wanted to write a quick update that things are still going well. Went in a week ago today for a sono & our little Squirt had gotten so big & was wiggling & karate chopping all over the place!! I measured 9+1 wks & should be 9+4 wks but they just stink w/measuring so not worried. I go for my first midwife appt on Mon then should get another scan in a week or 2. I can not wait!!!
My doppler started working 2 days before my sono so that helped calm me quite a bit & continues to. I seriously love that thing. I will be 12 weeks in only 10 days!! On one hand it seems around the corner. On the other it seems ages away. I'm already getting a lil bump & still feeling like crap which also keeps me calm. But even with all of this, I can't wrap my head around the possibility of actually getting to have a baby at the end of this. I'm more detached than I would like to be but I guess it comes with the territory. Hoping that making it to 12 wks changes things a bit. Or maybe once we tell everyone.
I did order a great little shirt for Addy that says "I'm going to be a big sister" & has her name & cute little monkeys on it. We are going to have her wear it over to my in-laws to announce it over Memorial Day weekend. Then when I have the guts to share it w/the world I'll take a pic & post it on FB. Once again this all seems crazy but I have to be positive & remain hopeful.
Here is our last sono pic of our little Squirt!

So happy that things are still going well. I agree with the doppler thing. So nice to be able to check on the baby. We're still trying to figure out when and how we're going to tell people.
