Not too much to report, a lot of the same. The baby is now the size of a lime. We decided to do the nuchal scan next Tuesday but we declined the blood screening and amnio. The blood test is too often inaccurate for my liking and an amnio is too invasive, so we just went with the scan that measures the thickness of the baby's neck. It is supposed indicate a possibility of downs syndrome if the neck measures thick. It is a standard test that almost all women are offered now and it is one more opportunity to see the baby, so I took it :) I am still getting sick but the days are getting fewer and farther between thank goodness. The second trimester is right around the corner!
P.S. I found this little gem of Tom with our niece Mary, isn't it the best!
