Baby's size: about the size of a lime; just over 2 inches long and half an ounce
What Munchkin is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. His intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine into his bladder.
Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. His face looks unquestionably human (how cool is that!?!): His eyes have moved from the sides to the front of his head, and his ears are right where they should be.
Symptoms: nausea (it has lessened but still shows up); fatigue; migraines
Best moment since last update: we had an ultrasound to confirm baby's due date - got to see lots of views of the baby and hear baby's heartbeat (156 bpm)
Movement: I think I've felt baby move - but it may be wishful thinking :)
Food cravings: mostly food aversions at this point - especially to meat
Total Weight Gain: 1 pound
What I miss: feeling well
What I'm looking forward to: having a noticeable baby bump
