How do you know?

How do you know a pregnancy is going well? Let me give you a few ideas:

Spontaneous vomiting.
Extreme and complete exhaustion.
Frequent urination.
A strong heartbeat of 156!!!

We had our 12 week appointment today and heard a beautiful heartbeat. "He" didn't really like being poked and prodded by the machine and kicked a lot, which sounded like thumps. M was with us and really enjoyed hearing "his" heartbeat. She even told our doctor that she's having a baby brother and his name is Handsome. We've actually all taken to calling it a him because she's so convinced it's a boy!

Hooray! This wonderful news makes my heart happy! Praying for a continued healthy pregnancy and a beautiful happy ending in 26-28 weeks!

Handsome! Kids are awesome. My friend's son was going to name his sister Tink, but since she was born he's decided the name his parents choose was okay, too.
