Baby Queen 12 weeks

Since we didnt let the news of the pregnancy out until almost twelve weeks, I have a few baby bump pictures that I wanted to post to my blog to share with our friends and family. We have faithfully taken a picture every week since seven weeks! I hope to continue all the way through the forty weeks!

So far so good with the morning sickness and fatigue! I was VERY tired at first, but I have started to regain some energy and spunk! I have had very minimal morning sickness, or in my case, 1 AM sickness. When I went for the 11 week check up, the doctor said the heart rate was at 170+ bpm. She couldn't get a sure count because I kept laughing at the baby moving away from the Doppler every time she would find the heart beat. We find out at 17 weeks whether baby Q is a boy or girl! I had gained five pounds at 11 weeks and she gave me permission to shamelessly eat all the icecream I want... But I haven't really wanted ANY icecream. I have developed a sweet tooth though (the baby must be related to Bill Queen).


Update: for some reason I can't upload the pictures correctly on my iPad

Baby Queen

So, the secret's out... Baby Queen will be here on approximately July 22!! We couldn't be more excited! We are in the process of looking for a house also! Busy, exciting time in the Queen household! I am now 11 weeks along with only a tad bit of morning sickness... Which I am so thankful for. I am such a worrier that I wanted to wait until my second doctor's appointment to tell everyone! I had the appointment yesterday and we heard the heartbeat for the second time. The first time at six weeks, the heart was beating at 120 boom. At 11 weeks, the heart. Was beating 170 bpm! The baby was so active that my doctor had a hard time measuring the babys's heart rate! She says it sounds like a girl...but we all feel like it's a boy. I can't wait to find out in six weeks! So far, the pregnancy is normal and the baby is healthy! We have been taking weekly pictures of my belly, but. Not much has changed yet! I will keep you posted!
