15 Weeks, 6 Days

Time flies when you're having organs removed!

We were a little unfair to Bit in Hawaii, blaming him/her for how sick I was, when it turns out it was probably all gall bladder issues.

The morning before I went into the hospital, we went in for our first trimester screening ultrasound. No solid conclusions yet, but the doctor said she thought everything looked fine so far. Bit has a little baby chin and a little baby nose and a little baby belly. John thinks s/he was blowing kisses.

Since everyone was a little worried about Bit after my first surgery last week, my obstetrical care has switched to being co-managed by the midwives and the OB. This seems like a good plan to us, though I remain nervous about too many interventions at birth.

As of Friday when we left the hospital, Bit was pretty happy in there, moving around like crazy. The child remains stubborn about not being heard with a doppler, though. It's a struggle every time!
