Today marks the begining of week 12 and coming up on the close of my 1st trimester. The baby is now about 2.1 inches long and about 1/2 oz. So about the size of a lovely plum.
The features on the baby's face are becoming more defined and the eyes are moving toward the front of the face. The brain is still developing and rapidly growing. The tiny hands will soon be able to open and close.
We have our 12 week appointment on Friday and I am both nervous and excited. Jeff will be able to take off work early and go with me for support, which is greatly appreciated. We are hoping we will get to heat the baby's heart beat and maybe get another ultrasound so we can see this sweet plum.
I still only have a small pooch for a belly, which is fine with me. I haven't gained any weight, I have lost. The morning sickness is getting better, but I have had a very hard time brushing my teeth...it seems to trigger it.
After not feeling well I went to my regular Doctor and found out that I have a sinus infection and double ear infection and some type of virus in my throat. He gave me some medication and is hoping it will kick all of this in the butt so I begin to feel better soon.
