I have been so tired lately. Now I know why they say being pregnant is like the flu. No matter how much sleep I get, I still feel run down. No other symptoms yet so I can't complain too much.

Beautiful.
Rest while you can, my dear! :) Great news about your ultra-sound. *hugs*
There really IS something magical in those ultrasounds, and I believe it. Try to get as much rest as you can... It's the best thing for you! Your body is doing some INCREDIBLE stuff right now. (At five months I'm still exausted and wallowing in morning sickness, so try to enjoy every comfortable moment while you've got the chance!) ;)
