Baby Caterpillar - 12 Weeks.

YEY! I'm 12 weeks! It's arrived.. pretty quickly actually. Although, we had already announced it and don't wait till 12 weeks, and knew this baby would stay, I'm pretty happy to be here!

I thought morning sickness had eased, and although I have some better days, and some days I'm not sick alll day like I was, when I am sick... I'm SICK! The day I was 12 weeks pregnant was the worst sickness of my whole pregnancy!! However, my exhaustion has left, although I go to bed earlier, I'm not needing to nap during the day.

I weighed myself this week, and was SO shocked that I have put on two kilo already ( 4.4 pounds ) ... some days I don't even keep one meal down, so I couldn't believe it! Ugh! I'm going to have to deal with gaining weight sooner or later, but I did think I was too early to gain that much?!
