And now, Lil' Turkey's graduated (at TWELVE WEEKS!!!) to this:
While my morning-noon-and-night sickness hasn't entirely pulled an Elvis and left the building, it has subsided over the last couple of days - just enough that I've got hope that I won't be holding onto this much longer than my first trimester (which ends next week!). I've managed to, in the past couple of weeks, successfully garner the skills of expulsion in the car while driving, when out to lunch with friends, and while on the phone with my husband. Add that to my resume.
I am, just barely, starting to show and I have, thanks to Kate and Gabby, picked up quite an array of maternity clothes to help navigate this transition for my body. A transition I hardly think I'm prepared for, but become increasingly excited about as I watch everyone else around me becoming more and more expectant for some sign of what's going on inside of me. A life extending from within me into the world it will one day inhabit. Our sweet Lil' Turkey. Can't wait to hear the heartbeat in just a couple of days!
