Fruit salad!

So - babycenter.com has me at lime this week. Whattoexpect.com has me at peach! So who knows...either way my belly is rather large!

Today I am officially 12 weeks pregnant! Yay!

So far it has been interesting - losing my job, finding a new one at the last minute, trying to fit into my clothes while also trying to look hirable, it's been a challenge!

The nausea is settling down, and my heartburn has said adios. The best thing so far has been being able to drink OJ like it's water, because normally a small glass would have me taking a box of Zantac, but I am fine with it right now.

I also took one of those scam home gender predictor tests, which indicated we are having a boy but apparently the boy results are the least reliable so we'll just have to wait until Christmas I suppose.

May 13th, 2010

Which happens to be Sosi's birthday, so as Erin says it's clearly a great day to be born!
Although knowing my luck it will be May 25th and no sooner. Grr!

A date to aim for

Today I am going for my dating scan. Having a date to actually aim for will probably make this all seem much more real but at least I will have more of an idea of how much longer I have to keep my mouth shut!

It's very hard to keep news like this quiet, particularly during the last days of being surrounded by all of your friends. I definitely hope to stay in touch with all of the people I feel I have grown close to over the last 2 and a half years, hopefully this blog will help with that! The biggest challenge has been that I didn't want to compromise people who may be called upon to give me a reference in the next few weeks. I didn't want to put anyone in that position so I hope they will understand down the line.

In any case in 5 hours time I will have a date, and hopefully a little more peace of mind. Stay tuned for the deets!
