The baby is the size of a: Kidney Bean
New baby developments this week: "Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl" (BabyCenter).
Total weight gain: Not much, maybe a pound
Maternity clothes? Nope
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Yep!
Best moment this week: Being excited for my first ultrasound on Monday -- in just two days! I look forward to seeing my baby for the first time and finally hearing his or her beloved heartbeat!
Miss Anything? Nope, not really! Movement/Feelings: All I feel is pain here and there in the front and back (basically, growing pains) -- a sign that the uterus is growing -- although the pains have subsided drastically over the past week
Food cravings: Fish; hot and sour soup; and strongly craving blueberry or banana nut muffins/bread (I have yet to satisfy the final craving!)
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Symptoms: None! (No frequent bathroom trips yet)
Gender: I don't know yet...but I'm still thinking it will be a girl
Labor Signs: Nope!
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Finding more about my new baby -- and finding out whether the "baby" indeed might be twins! lol
