14 Weeks!

Someone Very Special was born this day, 31 years ago. My wonderful husband arrived just a few minutes before March 31 turned into April 1. What an extraordinary gift he is!

Our own dear baby has continued to expand. Sometime soon, he or she will stretch to 4 inches long from crown to rump and weigh almost 1 ounce!

These are the physical changes taking place:
  • Eyes have been moving from the side to the front of the face
  • Neck is getting longer
  • Chin no longer is resting on the chest
  • Sexual development continues, making it easier to determine male and female.

On the other hand, changes in me seem to be on stand-still. I am very eager for my belly to announce I am pregnant! The picture of my nice round belly taken a few weeks back was taken a bit too early. My stomach actually shrank after John took the picture and though it is getting close to the size it was then, I don't think it has reached it yet! What I proudly thought was our baby was actually probably just fat or my bowls. Cheery eh?

I still haven't gained weight but that may change soon. I seem to be STARVING just a few hours after eating. Food is still not appealing!

My nausea at night is not getting better. Last night I almost threw up again and I've felt gross all day. I am looking forward to moving on from that stage.

So, I'm very glad to be this far along and am excited about the days ahead. :)
