Today I woke up exhausted. So exhausted that Todd dropped me off at mom's house instead of school. After breakfast, mom then brought me to school. After both breakfast and lunch I felt a bit nauseous. Upon getting home, I was exhausted. I ended up taking a nap and having to force myself out of bed again. Although right now I hardly feel pregnant, chest seems smaller, and tummy is fine.
Today is what I have been waiting for since I have gotten my period as late as 6 weeks before. Still keeping those fingers crossed...for April and me!!
Baby's Development (from Pregnancy.org)
- The arms and legs continue to develop - These limbs are stretching out more and more. Later on you will be feeling those feet and elbows up close and personal right in your bladder!
- Brain is growing well - Did you know that over the course of the remaining months that your baby's brain will develop over 100 billion neurons? This is just the beginning!
- Lenses of the eyes appear - If you could catch a glimpse inside, you would notice your baby's appearance becoming increasing like a newborn's.
- Nostrils are formed - The position of the nose seems to shift into its proper place as well. Soon, the nerves running from the nose to the brain appear.
- Intestines grow - Initially these are actually located outside the baby's body within the umbilical cord.
- Pancreas - Your baby is now equipped to deal with digestive enzymes and take on processing the insulin and glucagons the body needs to function.
