10 weeks!

Week 10: Prune. Average fetus — 3.1 cm, 4 grams. With bones and cartilage starting to form and vital organs beginning to function, baby is making major progress. Body length will almost double in the next three weeks, and arm joints are now working. (Soon, legs will too.)

I can't believe it has been 5 weeks already since we found out we were pregnant! Time has flown by... luckily I have been feeling better, not as much nausea (thank goodness!) and I think my energy is starting to come back. Just can't over do it, and have snacks available to avoid the icky feeling.

This coming Friday I go for my physical and I get to hear the heartbeat! I am so looking forward to that.. then I get to book my ultrasound! Hopefully by 18 or 19 weeks we will find out what we are having!!

Darkling Cynthia. The time will fly by, but not quickly enough when you feel tired. So I'm glad you are feeling a bit more energetic, and that morning sickness is getting under control. Have you two decided to find out the sex of your baby? Did you do that with Ben? Give him a little hug from me. Take care, Love MommA xxxooo

Darkling Cynthia? Let's try, Darling Cynthia instead. So much nicer and way more accurate! xx

Look! The little floater on the side is more like a wee bebe now! ;)

LOL.. thanks MommA! I am very very glad I have been feeling better! Makes all the difference when you have a child like Ben!! Yes, we have decided to find out the sex this time! We didn't with Ben (but we both had a feeling it was a boy!). This time, I am voting for the pink team!!

Kerry: Yes!! The little floater DOES look like a wee bebe now and not a tadpole!!

Have a great appointment today, and don't forget to update!

I was also going to say when I saw you last: If they do not find the heartbeat today do not be worried. It could be a bit early to do so. But you never know! I hope you do.
