12 weeks & an appointment

Hello all! Just as an update todays appointment went very smoothly. All is well with both of us. We got to hear a heartbeat again which is now at 162 bpm. Everything is looking great and our next appointment is March 4th. The sickness hasn't settled yet, but yesterday it occured to me that as long as they have me taking progestrone suppliments I will continue to be sick. I forgot to ask when they wanted me to stop taking them, so I have a call in to our nurse. So other than that it's business as usual. I'm feeling pretty great (other than the sick & really sleepy), and just excited at our progress. No new pictures yet, and the next appointment doesn't look likely either, however we are only 8 weeks from a full 4D ultrasound, and of course finding out the gender. So if you can hang in a little longer for an updated pic we will be good.

As for the superbowl... so fun! I was sad the cardinals lost, but they still did amazing. Let's not forget the Arizona cardinals were in the superbowl. How crazy sounding is that! They did great. As for Maggie & myself and our puzzle. Not so great :). We did pretty good, but even a 750 piece puzzle didn't work. Next year we are going to try 500 to boost our self esteem. We can build up from there. It was a great night & we enjoyed all the food, and family fun!

Here is your technical update for Baby MacGregor

Hello from BabyCenter! Your baby's hit the 2-inch mark (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce. Her eyes, which started out on the sides of her head, have moved closer together. Your baby's intestines, which have grown so rapidly that they protruded into the umbilical cord, will start to move into her abdominal cavity. Her kidneys are secreting urine into her bladder. She may have acquired more reflexes, including sucking, and she'll even squirm if you prod your abdomen, though you still won't be able to feel her move for several weeks.
