One trimester down, two to go.

I'm officially 14 weeks pregnant today which means I am opening this blog up to the public and will likely be updating it a lot more. At first it was a place to store the quirky feelings I was experiencing privately but the plan now is for you to follow Jonathan and me along this process without us having to bother you with lots of e-mail updates.

Here are some things we learned in the past few days:

• The McNugget (who is in need of a new name so please feel free to suggest one) is now the size of a lemon
• All of my genetic tests came back negative (this is a good thing) and I'm at a very low risk for everything else that can't be ruled out
• Pregnant women should avoid sprouts. Actually, we just read this somewhere on the web so we should probably confirm it before perpetuating a myth
