Sorry for not updating! I've been lazy for most of the day and then taught a class this evening.
I am officially past 12 weeks. Today the nurse started by looking for baby down near my pubic bone, since that's where she found the heartbeat last week. After I started to have heart palpitations, she reminded me to take a deep breath and relax because that sucker is really little and can be hard to find. But find it she did- now to the left and a bit below my belly button. The nurse has decided it must be a girl by the heartbeat and the fact that she "hides".
So all is good. I took the good news as an opportunity to do some online shopping for clothes. Gap, Old Navy, and a couple tops on sale from Motherhood. I should be good for a while... (Why does my head always asterisk those comments with "assuming all progresses well"....?)

Hang in there!! You are doing great!
Yay for new clothes!!! Old Navy has the best maternity tops/dresses, and it seems like they're always on sale! Target is good for underclothes and an occasional top, but their pants SUCK. The fabric is so unforgiving that I literally can't bend over when I wear their jeans. Motherhood has the most comfortable jeans out of all three, AND they have petite sizes, which I don't know if that's an issue for you or not but I'm freakin SHORT! Enjoy the new stuff!!!
You are doing well! it's impossible to relax I know, so just take one day at the time and eventually you'll have a baby to bring home and still will feel unreal!
A friend of mine had one who hid in utero and who crossed her legs when it was time to check for gender. They suspected it was a girl. Too much of a Diva to not be a girl. Yup, she's a girl & she's lovely.
Cricket was like that early on, and they think girl, too, LOL. I'm glad you broke down and got some clothes...you are doing so well!!!
Yay! Yay! Yay! I am so freeeeaaaaking happy for you! 12weeks! That is a huge milestone! I was thinking about you the other day, and thinking you were having a girl for some reason... Yay for you. God bless!
