8 Weeks on 9-16-15

How Far Along: 8 weeks

How Big is Baby: (Taken from Fertility Friend)"
Your baby measures about 0.9 to 1.2 inches (2.2 to 3cm) from crown to rump.
Your baby's arms and legs are longer and her hands are flexed at the wrist. The head is growing more erect and the neck is more developed. On an ultrasound, you may see your baby moving, though you still can not feel this.
The organs are forming. Ears are developed and the eyelids have begun to cover up your baby's eyes. Hands and feet appear as well as small buds which will become fingers and toes. The paddles of your baby's hands have clearly defined finger ridges now, with the tissue between them (which previously made them look webbed) reducing to leave separate fingers.
Your baby's back has started to straighten slightly and the tail is now shrinking. The head still seems large and is curved forwards on her chest. Your baby is starting to look like a tiny person!"
Weight Gain/Loss: Starting Pregnancy Weight= +0lbs

Maternity Clothes: No

Stretch Marks: No (other than the ones I have always had)

Sleep: I toss and turn a lot (and get up to pee often), but overall I'm sleeping ok. 

Best Moment of the Week: As much as I dislike throwing up, it's wonderful reassurance that baby is growing!

Movement: No

Symptoms: Nausea, Round Ligament Pain, Vomiting 

Food Cravings: Cereal, Cold Fruit

Gender: We're far from knowing!
  
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: I feel sick when I get hungry.

Labor Signs: No
Belly Button In or Out? In
Wedding Rings On or Off? On
Mood: Happy, Anxious

Looking Forward To: October  8, 2015 will be my second OB appointment. We'll hopefully hear his/her heart beat on the doppler. If they don't hear it, we'll get an ultrasound to be sure all is well.
