1st Trimester Champ!

Two months ago, a little birdie (a stork maybe?) notified me that I will be carrying another heart <3

As I cross the threshold of my first trimester into my second, I'm still left with a mixture of emotions. I'm in awe, I'm anxious, I'm excited, I'm terrified, I'm curious, I'm worried. My mind wanders with thoughts of motherhood. Will I have a normal pregnancy? Will I get sick? What will happen to my body? Will I be a good mother? Will I be an effective parent? Will I be able to provide? Will I ever stop worrying?

Going into 13 weeks, I'm not showing yet and I am eagerly anticipating when our little Peanut will make its presence known! It's still a very surreal experience for me - as I've been spared the curse of morning sickness and it's been an exhausting, but smooth ride so far. 

As far as actual baby updates go, we have heard the heartbeat already! My doctor had absolutely no trouble finding it with the Doppler- WHOOSH-WHOOSH-WHOOSH-WHOOSH-WHOOSH-WHOOSH at 150 bpm. Little Peanut Bleakley's heart is strong!

In 2 weeks we get our first sonogram :)
