Officially into the Second Trimester

Yippee! As of my doctor's appointment today, the due date is Aug. 7. I am thirteen weeks and two days pregnant!

It has been pretty exciting so far. Many of you know, we were trying to get pregnant. Around the middle of December, I felt ill, but thought nothing of it because Gian had been really sick, so I just assumed I got what he had. When I went to my in-laws' for Christmas Eve, I could barely eat my favorite Christmas dish, zuppa de pesce (fish stew) and napped in a chair for part of the evening. Then, when we got to my parents' house on Christmas Day, my mom sort of gave me an inquisitive look, which I quickly dismissed - I was just sick! But in the car ride home two days later, I started thinking about it... and lo and behold, we were expecting!!

I have to tell you, my winter vacation from school was the worst. I was nauseous (never threw up, but completely wanting to) for the duration of my time off. It has eased off a bunch since. Now, I just feel very worn out and tired when I get home from work.

I am still exercising - last night, I looked at my reflection, and I am definitely starting to show in my workout gear! I still fit in my regular jeans, but I need to go shopping this weekend for some clothes that fit my midsection.

Very excited to be pregnant - I hope to keep you all updated here.
