Mmmmm...

Wonderful Week 15...

Your baby’s skin is very thin, and his/her blood vessels can actually be seen through the skin. Your baby’s ears are continuing to develop externally and continue to look more like normal ears. Your baby’s eyes are continuing to move towards the nose from the sides of his/her head. The baby’s bones are beginning to ossify, which means that if an x-ray was taken the skeleton would be visible. Babies at this age have also been caught sucking their thumbs on ultrasound pictures.

I want sweets...

I don't want fruit...
I don't want veggies...
I don't want milk...

I just want sweets...

Of course I am eating my fruits, veggies and milk, but I'd rather have a cupcake...

A Monumental Moment

A monumental moment has occurred...

Over the weekend I brought my first pair of maternity pants...

I probably could have waited another week or two, but honestly my old pants were just getting uncomfortable...

I really haven't gained weight yet, but my body has been changing... My hips and tummy have expanded and the girls have gotten slightly bigger... I know I won't show like my pregnant skinny counterparts, but I am excited that I finally can be content with letting my body be just the way it is...

An early weekly update...

I am updating early because tomorrow, after school, Tony and I are heading up north to the cabin for a much needed get-a-way.

2nd Trimester... Woot!
Your little boy or girl has fully developed sex organs by this week, although they're still difficult to see through ultrasound. He's 3 inches long and weighs an ounce and a half, give or take a few grams. Now that the major systems are in place, the fetus will start to grow at an amazing rate. In the next month or so, he'll triple in length and reach the impressive weight of 1 pound.
