How far along: 10 weeks as of December 6, 2011. Double digits!
Size of baby: Kumquat. I'm not really sure what that is, but the baby is a little over an inch long. All of Beansprout's vital organs have formed, his teeth buds emerge and his eyelids develop further. Also, his brain growth really takes off.
Movement: None that I can feel.
Sex of baby: Well, now I'm not so sure. After this week's doctor's appointment and the high heartbeat, I'm thinking that maybe it could be a girl. We'll find out for sure in about 9 weeks!
Sleep: Much better than last week. Plus, I am not as fatigued as I used to be, so I don't feel exhausted all of the time.
What I miss: Having a glass of wine to de-stress at night. Beansprout is worth it, though!
Cravings: Macaroni and cheese sounded good to me this week. I am trying not to indulge too much, though, since I've already gained two pounds in two weeks! Hope that weight trend doesn't continue throughout the pregnancy!
Symptoms: Some fatigue, indigestion and digestive issues. Normal for this time in the period.
What I'm looking forward to: The next appointment on December 23. We will have the scan to look for chromosomal disorders, which I am hoping and praying will be normal. Keep your fingers crossed! Hopefully we can hear the heartbeat again then, too!
