Your fetus currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and has skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through it. But fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds, and nail beds are forming -- setting up a significantly more attractive future.
How Far Along: 11 weeks and 3 days
Total weight gain: I haven't gotten on the scale this week, but we'll see what it says next week at the doctor's office
Maternity clothes: Not wearing any yet, but I bought some tank tops (and a dress on sale for $6.99!) last week at Motherhood Maternity
Sleep: Sleepy, sleepy, sleepy during the day at work. Luckily, I've had 3 days off work and I've been able to catch up on my sleep. I'm sure I won't think so tomorrow at work though!
Best Moment this week: Knowing I get to go back to the doctor a week from tomorrow
Movement: None yet
Gender: I'm guessing boy or girl
Labor signs: None and I hope not to see any for a long time!
Belly button: Innie
Cravings: I had a craving for pizza yesterday, so we went to Stevi B's. Yummo! BLT pizza is the best!
Nausea: Still present most of the day and now heartburn has been added to the mix. Tums are definitely my friend.
What I miss: Being able to eat whatever without thinking about whether it's on the do not eat list. But if I could guarantee a healthy, term baby by not eating certain foods for the rest of my life, I would do it in a second!
Stretch Marks: Just a few on my belly.
Weekly wisdom: It's nice to be the person a few weeks ahead of someone else that they can ask questions of. I'm usually the one asking all the questions!
What I am looking forward to this week: Getting together with family this weekend for our annual Cherry Blossom picnic on Coleman Hill.
