13 Weeks

I've been getting nervous about not really feeling any new movement since the first time. The other day on the drive home I asked for a sign that things were good - and since then (maybe starting 30min after) I've feeling some strong movements a few times a day!
It's always on the left side and mostly very low - just at or above the bikini line.

So, that's making me feel better.

I decided to tell my boss yesterday too. She was so happy she cried a little bit. I thought I was going to lose it when she did that, but I was alright once I started talking about it. Though, the plan is not yet to tell my team or the rest of the company until after my first midwife appointment. Which is now set for about 15 weeks (Feb 12th).

I started weaning off the progesterone on wednesday too. I was nervous, but also ok with it. I'll be glad to have one less thing to take. I've noticed almost right away my nipple pain has reduced (but not gone) since I lowered my progesterone intake.

I feel if we can make it to our 15 week appointment w/out issue (i'll be down to 1 progesterone pill/day by then) and we can hear a strong heartbeat with the doppler, I will feel much more comfortable sharing the news with more people.
