Time is absolutely flying by! We're so close to the end of the first trimester already that I can just about reach out and touch it!
These 12 weeks have been interesting! The constant nausea has diminished (thank goodness!), though I still don't seem to be able to tolerate dairy (no ice cream!) and animal protein--especially beef--causes GI distress. So, this cheese/ice cream/milk/meat lover from WI has been relegated to eating more like a finicky CA starlet dabbling in vegetarianism:) Bean curd curry anyone?
Despite my inability to eat with reckless abandon, Little Wee One seems to be getting bigger. While I am not really showing yet, I've have definitely gotten more "thick" through the waist and low stomach. I'm now officially down to only two pairs of normal jeans and one pair of just acquired stretchy-sided maternity pants. So far though, everything else has remained pretty much the same size. Any bets on how long that lasts?:)
1st trimester has also brought tiredness at levels I'd never imagined possible and outrageously vivid dreams just about every night on a mind-blowing range of scary, weird, or downright non-sensical topics. Do these go away as the weeks move on?
Anyways, Pete and I promise to post pictures as the tummy grows:)
Hugs!

My best to you both, I look forward to seeing and hearing more.
