Finally, 12 Weeks!

Hello! It's been a while since I've posted. I've been working like crazy. Work has also been very dramatic and stressful. I'm so irritable right now and pretty much hate the salon I'm working in. I've been annoyed with it for a long time, but extremely annoyed now. Just one coworker pisses me off, really. I haven't told the entire place yet, because I really don't want them to know, lol. The guy that I've been having  a hard time with is so egotistical and I hate giving him any info on my personal live. He'll turn something good into something about him, and how I'm lazy (unlike him!) if I cut my schedule back, etc. I can't worry about what he thinks, but he's best friends with the boss and I can't stand her either.

On to a more interesting subject! We are going for our NT scan Tuesday. I'm not really nervous. Just hoping the baby is still kickin'. Literally :) I can't wait to update you all! I still haven't posted about meeting the high-risk doctor at 9 weeks, have I? Everything went well. He said we're basically playing a waiting game. The baby will decide when/if I need bed rest. I'd like to work as long as I can, but whatever I have to do, I'll do! Maybe we'll be surprised how things go. I liked the doctor, though. I'll be in his care and the regular ob/gyn's care.

My body is another thing! I feel so gross all the time. I'm praying my skin starts turning around and quits breaking out. I've gained 7lbs in the 1st tri. That's a bit ridiculous! I was already 8-10 lbs heavier than I prefer to be prior to getting pg. I've got to slow down on my eating. I just never feel full. Ever. I know my belly isn't "baby" belly, but it sure is huge, lol.

I'm feeling a few twinges of crampiness, here and there. Still have sore boobs, but they aren't always sensitive.  So, other than looking and feeling fat and 16, I feel great. I'm going to post a few pics and do a survey!

I have 8 and 10 weeks somewhere on my laptop, but I'm not on that computer now.
