Just a quick update since I need to get some things done before bed.

Steve and I heard the baby's heart beat today - it was so incredible. I could've listened for hours. In fact, I considered stealing the device the doctor used. Little walnut moved around. He/she was very low - lower than I pictured. So, the possible "showing" is really fat after all. Oh well. My friend Missy calls it the fat stage - when you don't look pregnant, you just look like you've lost your waist. I flipped through a magazine today at the gym and there was a picture of Britney Spears in a swim suit - she is in the "lost her waist" stage - I can see why women are so anxious to show. You want the world to know what is happening inside you.

I can't believe the first trimester is almost over - I keep thinking how early everything still is, but its going by so quickly.

We'll get an ultrasound not next appointment, but the one after that. Its going to be so hard to wait.

I felt nearly normal today.

I worked out!

God bless my husband who is so wonderfully considerate of and interested in the pregnancy. I am blessed.

My unpleasant situation at work had some developments today before I left. We'll see what transpired while I was gone this afternoon.
