8 Weeks Ending Today.

Our Baby
In just two weeks, my baby has basically quadrupled in size -- Baby is now about a half-inch long! And while just last week my baby barely had hands, now the fingers and toes have started to develop. Baby's wrists, elbows, and ankles are visible on an ultrasound now (with some help from my eagle-eyed technician, of course)

I don't go in till I am 9 weeks and 1 day. We will see if they will do another u/s then.

This week my baby may even be able to start flexing them! Our baby's delicate facial features are becoming more refined now, with ears, upper lip, and the teeny tip of baby's nose all clearly visible. Our baby's eyelids will also take shape for the first time this week (the eyes, which now have pigment in them, will appear open until the lids have finished growing in a few weeks' time). Finally, our baby's key internal organs continue to develop, most notably the intestines and heart, which grows stronger by the day.

I am feeling ok minus the vomiting and the very sore boobs. LOL
