Better do this now, before I put it off again. I hate doing so many blogs in one day, but since these are done mainly for my own use, then I guess it shouldn't matter.
Wooo Weeee .. this week has been WAY different than last !
I am EVEN more hungry ...... even more tired ...... and my boobs, HA, well, they are just plain angry with me. So besides the fact that I have to eat like a HOG nearly every two hours, feel like I have to sleep all the time, been having headaches and boob aches all week, The good thing is, no more spotting or cramping of any kind seems to be going on ! :O) I am still a tad bit irritable at times though. The majority is now taken over with the mood swings ending and me being in my happy pregnancy state again. So as long as I am fat and fed, sleeping alot and not in pain from the boobie sisters ...... I am A - OK ! :o)
AS FOR THE BABY :
The Baby :
All of your baby's vital organs are now formed and functioning, so the risk of defects decreases this week as your baby becomes less susceptible to outside influences. Phew! Other exciting developments include:
Baby's ears are assuming their proper place this week and the fingernail and toenail beds are beginning to form. Your little "pumpkin head" really lives up to his nickname as his head is nearly as big as the rest of his body.
While testes or ovaries are completely formed now, don't start decorating the nursery. You won't be able to see your baby's gender for a few more weeks yet.
Your baby is really on the move now. In an ultrasound you might be able to see your little acrobat flailing his or her arms and legs and doing somersaults worthy of Cirque du Soleil. You still won't be able to feel any movement, so if you feel something "kick" in there, it's probably gas.
In the next nine weeks, your baby will increase 30 times in weight and almost triple in length. You might feel like you're increasing 30 times in weight at this point, too, but we can assure you're not—because, honey, you ain't seen nothin' yet!
Your baby now weighs a third of an ounce, about the same as two small, Starbucks-sized packets of sugar, is about 2 inches long, the length of one of those sugar packets. Isn't that sweet?
Well a big WOOHOO on no more cramping or spotting but sorry about your boobs! Yikes! I remember that!!! Sorry your even more tired and hungry!! Always enjoy your blogs!! I think I am caught up now! You sure were busy!! LOL Hugs
ReplyDeleteI remember all those symptoms. Glad you're cramping + bleeding stopped. I love these updates. ;)
ReplyDeleteI have stopped spotting too! (knock on wood!) And have been so hungry, yet am quessy all the time. And today I think I am getting acold or my allergies are out of control. Either way, I am about to rip my nose off my face! I even took a children's chewable allergy tablet -shh!

ReplyDeleteAwww, I hope you're not getting a cold, that isn't good. :O(
Well, I'm surrounded by germy little booger factories all day, so Iwon't be surprised if it is a cold. I will have been the only employee so far that hasn't gotten it. I tell ya though if I wake up in the morning even a BIT stuffy, I'm calling in! Better to stay home than to chance getting sicker!
