Baby is Growing
Our baby's growing: "Tiger paw" is just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a plum, is now almost fully formed. Baby is getting heavier all the time, (mama is starting to "outgrow" some of her pants), and is learning lots of complicated behaviors like the swallowing reflex and coordinated responses that allow them to touch their face. Our baby's hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under the gums, and some of baby's bones are beginning to harden. Our little "tiger paw" is already busy kicking and stretching, and baby's tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as baby's body grows and becomes more developed and functional. I won't feel our baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will I notice the hiccuping that may be happening now that the diaphragm is now forming.
Some changes in my body that may or may not be noticeable to family and friends:
While no weight gain... belly is shifting due to the size of the uterus... Making some of my pants a little more difficult to wear.. Hmmmm
Also..is that fact the the boobs are so and getting a little larger too... making it a little uncomfortable... Oh well, a price I will gladly pay for a bundle of joy!!!
Vomiting is still part of my pregnancy at this point!!! YEA~~~~
Next Dr.'s Appointment is Nov. 13, '08
