Week 9

Dear Sweet Pea,

Today I am 8 weeks along, and you are 6 weeks into your development. You are just under an inch long now, and growing by about 1mm everyday. All of your organs are in place now, and your muscles continue their development. Your fingers and toes are starting to become more defined. You are moving around all the time, but I still can't feel you yet. On Friday, Daddy and I will be going for my first ultrasound. It will be exciting to get our first peek at you, and we should be able to see your heart beating away, as well.

I am having less days now where I feel exhausted, but it still doesn't take much to tire me out. I'm definitely having quite a bit of nausea, and I never know what will be the next sight or smell to set it off. I have been quite bloated, especially in the late afternoon and evening. Yesterday I conceded that one pair of dress pants no longer fits me comfortably :( Luckily I have another pair that's a little looser! Some days I feel like I could eat a horse, and other days, food just isn't appealing to me at all.

Just for kicks, here is a belly picture taken this morning. I am not sucking my tummy in at all, but again this is partly bloat, and partly fat!
