12 weeks

12 WEEKS

Slowly but surely, we’re telling more people.  I’m looking forward to getting in the second trimester and the lack of evening sickness and that “burst of energy” people talk about!  I’ve definitely got a bump going on.  It really just feels like I’m fat or bloated but it doesn’t go away like it used to.  I spent some time at Ashley’s today just hanging out at the pool and having girl time.  Her sister-in-law knows my physician group and after talking about that for a bit, I finally decided it’s time to switch OBs.  I’ll talk to a few people at work that know about the Bean and see if they have recommendations.  I’m praying I’ll easily find someone that will accept me as a new patient and that I can trust.
