The 4th month

In 3 weeks I'll get to go for my first ultrasound. I can't wait. It may sound crazy, but the reality of my pregnancy still hasn't set in. The reason for that is that I still haven't really had any obvious symptoms. I haven't gained any weight and I have yet to experience the first morning sickness, nausea, moodiness, etc. My doctor is puzzled by this as well. At my 3rd month checkup he sent my for a second blood test to reconfirm that I was indeed still pregnant. It was positive again. I have had a few indirect symptoms such as food aversions, tiredness and increased appetite. Those however, could be totally unrelated. This is why I'm so looking forward to my ultrasound, so I could finally see the baby, and know for sure that there really is someone in there. I try not to worry about it too much. I know there are lots of women out there who go through hell, especially in the first trimester. And here I am worrying, because I feel fine. Go figure.
Fortunately, I am still able to work as much overtime as I did before I got pregnant. I'm happy, as this will give our budget a boost once I'm on maternity leave. I still haven't announced the news at work. I'm going to hold off as long as I can. I just don't want to be in the centre of attention.
