the pace is picking up

I'm 14 weeks pregnant today. I've realised the crossover from the first to second trimester is a little fuzzy. 12/13/14 weeks? It's safe to say I'm there now regardless of where you look. I never thought I would get this far. I'm still taking it one day at a time. The pace is definately starting to pick up! 

The nausea is still here. So much for feeling better after 12 weeks. I think it's starting to ease a little now. I still feel sick all the time but I've not been sick the past 2 days. I'm going to see my GP tomorrow morning at 9am. The prescription for the antisickness tablets was only for one week. I'll also need to go back to work at some point. I've been off since the 7th of July. I do feel bad being off work but I don't want to rush back when I'm still feeling awful. 

I'm still waiting for my results of the CUB screening. I know the midwife said the results can take 10-14 days but I've just been wondering about them. The midwife did say if there was a problem I would normally hear within a few days. It's been over a week so I'm hoping that no news is good news. 

My next midwife appointment is now booked. It's the 9th September (09/09/09 - should be easy to remember!!). It's my 16 week appointment. As far as I'm aware she will listen to the baby's heartbeat at this one. 

I've not really used my doppler for a while. Even though I only listened to the heartbeat for barely 30 seconds at a time I get the feeling my baby doesn't like it. He always moves away from it or kicks at it. I'm still terrified but I have to admit that I'm feeling a little better about things since my booking scan and the fact I've now reached the second trimester. 

None of my jeans fit. None. My mum made a comment the other night about me starting to look pregnant. I didn't really know what to think of that. It's still so early. I'm not sure if it was because I was so slim to begin with. I have a surprise birthday party to go to on Friday night and I have no idea what I'm going to wear. 

I'm really not complaining. I just can't believe how fast everything changes. 

A few of you asked if I was going to post pictures of me so here you go. I do wish I had a picture taken before so I could really compare but I never thought this would happen.
