Almost to the End of the 1st Trimester

I have known about being pregnant for about five weeks, and they have been a long five weeks. We have had one doctors appointment, where they were able to give us an ultrasound and we got to see the baby's blob but not actually hear the heart beat. They told us that the next time we go in that we will get to probably have another ultrasound. Patty even made a joke about seeing twins so it should be fun to go in and see if she was just joking or not.

I have been lucky enough to not experience any morning sickness at all. I am at 11 weeks and have not thrown up once! (knocking on wood). A friend of mine said that because I have not gotten sick I'll be having a boy. We haven't really talked about what we want. Tyler wants a boy as the first kid, so that our second one can be a girl. Not that I even want a second kid but I just nod my head when he talks. I think though that to make up for not being sick I am beyond exhausted constantly. I fell asleep on Jenna during a road trip last weekend and that has NEVER happened. I haven't missed any work, expect 3 hours one afternoon I went home early because I had to be back at work from 6 to 9 that night (so I don't really count that as missing work just rearranging the hours in my day!)

We have another doctors appointment on November 25th during my 12th week. I'm not sure what to expect from the appointment. They drew a bunch of blood at the first one so I imagine we'll talk about those tests. My due date is sometime around June 1st to June 4th right now, but I'm sure that will change a little bit. I bought my first maternity clothes with Jenna there for support. They are much more comfortable and make work not seem so long! We haven't really started looking at names or anything yet.
