12 Weeks

Yesterday we hit the 12 week mark. I'm still hoping to start feeling less nauseous soon. My boobs generally don't hurt as much. I still have to keep them supported but the last few weeks have been better... until yesterday when they reached a new level of hurt, thankfully today they're ok. My belly is growing but I still just look (and feel) fat. I've gained 2.5 pounds so it's not like I'm just stacking on the pounds or anything. We have our next sonogram on Wednesday! I can't wait!

This week:

• Vocal cords begin to form
  
• Eyes begin to move closer together
• Ears shift to their normal place on the side of the head
• Intestines move farther in to your child's body
• His or her liver begins to function - Responsible for cleansing the blood, storing nutrients, and providing needed chemicals, this is an important event!
• The pancreas begins to produce insulin
• Guess what? Your baby's average size is now at a whopping length: 2.13 inches (5.4cm) and weight: 0.49 ounce (14gm)
