This may take awhile...

I've been neglecting my posting responsibilities, so I have many many points to cover here. I think, for the sake of my terrible memory, I will outline those topics here.
THINGS TO BLOG ABOUT:
a) Current stats
b) My 12-week dr. appointment
c) Pictures (need to add 12 week)
d) Baby steal of a lifetime
e) Rant involving pregnancy and what people say to me
f) Irony of my "Thankful" post

Alright- here's the current stats. And, I've been meaning to buy a scale to keep track of my weight (just because it's interesting, not because I am concerned about gaining weight. I'm not.), but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Day: 91
Days Left: 189
Feeling: I feel better! I haven't had morning sickness in a couple weeks! My appetite is returning rapidly. I have still been more tired lately, but that is also beginning to subside. I used to take a 2 hour nap everyday and then still be ready for bed at 8:30 or 9. Now I usually fall asleep for 30-45 minutes after work and then go to bed at 10 or 11. I've heard that won't last long though. Now I'm just having daily back pain and headaches.
Mood: Much better now that I actually feel better. I no longer mope around. Yay!
Recent Cravings: None that I've noticed. I still love me some milk.
Just Noticed: It's going to be nap time real soon!

So, last Tuesday I had my 12-week doctor appointment. H went with me, because I was unsure of what they would be doing. I have heard of some people having ultrasounds at their 12-week appointment, and I didn't want him to miss that. So he went. They told me ahead of time that they would be doing an exam, so I told H that he may want to excuse himself during that. Oh no, no, he'll be fine, he says. Alright, buddy, whatever. So the doc does all the basic checkups with me and we do the whole Q and A thing. Then he gets the nurse and they start setting up for the exam. H is sitting in a chair pretty much right at the end of the table. I tell him he may want to move. He says that it's fine, it's nothing he hasn't seen before. Uh, not like this, my friend. The doctor starts pulling the stirrups out of the table and I swear to you, H's eyes got as big as baseballs. And he says... "I think I need to move my chair." Told ya! He told me later that he was glad he wasn't a woman. But anyways, I digress. Everything went very well at the appointment. We heard the heartbeat again! I have lost 6 pounds since the last time I was weighed there, but that's normal since I didn't feel very well.

Haha...that nap is calling my name. I will finish my post tonight or tomorrow!
