What I didn't know was that they would be doing a blood draw today. Anyone that knows my history with needles knows this is not a good thing. Ugh... I'm having flashbacks to the hour it took to put in an IV before surgery... Being cold and having not eaten didn't help either. The first try in my arm didn't work, but don't worry, I didn't pass out. My ears were ringing, and I was sweating, but I didn't pass out. After I freaked out a bit, I let the guy try on my hand. He used a baby needle and got it! Thank God! They took so much blood that it hurt pretty bad at the end. Afterwords, I had three of the lab techs checking on me. Apparently, I looked pretty pale. The fantastic news... Paul and I signed up for a prenatal screening that requires two more blood tests. One of which, is only a couple weeks away. This baby is already creating a list of things to hold over its head and make it feel guilty about! :) I'm such a good Catholic (minus the going to church part). Anyway, being tired already, that drained the rest of my energy. Hence, I'm in bed.
We don't have another appointment with our doctor until the first week of April. That's when we'll be entering the second trimester. I can't wait to get there! Let's just say, I haven't been feeling top notch lately.
We're in week eight now. That means that Baby Winn is the size of a kidney bean now! Our little kidney bean has webbed hands and feet and its tail is almost gone! Speaking of kidneys, for some reason, the baby develops three sets of kidneys. All three sets have been formed now, but it will only keep the last and third set to be its actual kidneys. That's all for now folks!
This is what Baby Winn looks like now. Let's hope they start to resemble a human soon!
The love of the kidney bean child is stronger than dislike of needles! That is one of the many reasons I know you and Paul will be amazing parents!
