12 Weeks Pregnant



Here's our profile at 12 weeks pregnant. There's a little pouch showing a wee bit already. This is actually taken Thanksgiving day. I've been feeling great the last few weeks. No more nausea. Even my energy is back to normal. Though some days I do get tired and want to nap. But in general I don't even think about being pregnant, because I don't feel any different. I do wear looser pants though, to be more comfortable. My pregnancy acne is still here, unfortunately. I don't know if that will disappear in the second trimester or not. I've read that it usually does. Good!

In response to our diaper query, I've been told about gDiapers. They are a washable outer pant with a flushable liner. Designed to be more environmentally friendly than either other option. In a few days we'll be in our new hometown in Alaska and can ask around up there what's available.

To get from Anchorage to our base, we'll have to fly in a single prop plane for an hour ride. Unpressurized and seats just a few people. Since we'll only be going up to 4000 feet, it should be safe for the pregnancy. We're so excited to get started up there. Ready to brace the cold. And our first Christmas alone away from family since we've gotten married.
