We made it through the crucial months!

Phew! We made it to 12 weeks and I can't tell you what a relief that is. It doesn't mean we are in the clear for miscarriage but we have way less of a chance. They say I should get some energy back and that the 2nd trimester is the best one. Depending on what you read we will be in the 2nd trimester at 13 or 14 weeks (based on a 40 week pregnancy.)


7 weeks~ just before meeting Squirt
for the first time! 
12 weeks~ 2 days after hearing Squirt's
heartbeat for the first time!
I had some routine pregnancy blood work done a month ago and just found out the results. After 28 years of life, I finally know my blood type. I'm A+, which is the same as Matt. I wonder what Squirt will have... 
After recently fainting at the eye doctor and the doctor's office I insisted I had to lay down to get blood work done. The lab didn't have a bed or even a place for me to lie down, so we improvised:

This is going to be a lot harder to do when I'm further along but
for now it did the trick, I walked out like a big girl on my own 2 feet!

  1. Statistically speaking, since O-type blood is a recessive trait, Squirt has a 75% chance of having A-type blood, assuming Melissa has Ao genes... like me. If Melissa is AA, then Squirt has no choice but to be A.
