Your fetus currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and has skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through. But, fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds and nail beds are forming -- setting up a significantly more attractive future.
Due Date: August 13, 2010
Total weight gain/loss: -4... wow. I don't think I've eaten this healthy my whole adult life.
Maternity clothes? I've been wearing my maternity jeans... waaaay more comfortable than my regular jeans. Yesterday I bought an outfit for work so when my belly suddenly gets bigger (as people like to tell me it will) I'll have clothes that fit without giving me a wedgie or driving me crazy trying to make them fit with my belly band! (I <3 my belly band!)
Sleep: Normal

Belly Button in or out? In... no change.

Other: I've noticed that I feel better than ever. Probably due to my eating habits but possibly because I'm pregnant - we'll see if it keeps up after the baby comes... well then I'll probably feel great as a new mom (tired, but great)... so maybe I can just credit my baby with making me wonderful! ALSO - my nails really are strong and longer than ever because of being pregnant/the calcium intake! I had to file them the other day because they were too long for me. Usually they break before I ever get the chance to trim or file the rough spots.
So far this Mommy-to-be status has been better than I anticipated!
Sounds like you're doing very well! That baby band thingy is cool! Wish they would have had those when I was having babies!
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you're eating so well! I was really bad about that :P
ReplyDeleteWe need to get together...I don't think I've seen you since you had an olive!
