12 Weeks! The magic number!

So, 12 weeks have gone by in the life of Baby Mac! The main thing this means for me is that the miscarriage risk has dropped to a very miniscule number. I hadn't really done a lot of worrying since we saw the baby and heartbeat anyway, but it's still good to hit this milestone. In a week I will be officially in the 2nd trimester!

The main notable thing that has occurred recently is the return of my energy. I can finally go a whole day without needing a nap, but I still get tired earlier than usual. I'll take it! It feels great to feel like myself again. I think my eating is mostly back to normal too. I haven't had any cravings or aversions in the past couple of days.

Well, a few days ago I thought my belly had grown and I was now showing, for real. But this morning I woke up and my belly felt flatter than it has in weeks. Not that you can tell it in these darn pictures...

I guess it was just baby bloat! 

It was about 37 degrees outside when we took these, but the sun was shining, so it wasn't so bad. Also, this coat I wore was really warm.
