According to ParentsConnect.com . . .

This is what ParentsConnect.com stated the baby's development is this week:



"Your baby can make a fist and even suck his or her thumb this week—both skills that are über-cute during infancy ... and not so much at the age of 9. If you're really lucky, you might catch a glimpse of baby's thumb sucking on an ultrasound photo. That's a framer! Other exciting developments include:

 Your baby's eyelids are fused shut to protect his eyes as they develop. His bones and skull are solidifying and soon itsy-bitsy ribs may appear. (Baby ribs! How cute is that?!) Baby's intestines are finally right where you want them—in his or her belly instead of poking out into the umbilical cord. Baby's tooth sockets are all loaded and ready to pop out baby teeth six or seven months after baby is born (causing baby a lot of pain and you a lot of lost sleep).

 Who's that singing? Elton John? Could be your baby: His vocal cords and larynx are completed now.


 Your baby-to-be now weighs about 20 grams and is nearly 3 inches long, or about the size of a Nutter Butter, covered in chocolate. OK, it doesn't have to be covered in chocolate, but isn't everything better that way?"



13 Weeks Today

So today I am now 13 weeks preggo. Still nauseated of course. It has been going on 5 days since I threw-up last though, so that's something to celebrate I think...Well, thought I would start this blog to keep everyone in the know with how everything is going with the bean growing in my belly. My stomach is starting to pop out just a little. It's very noticable to me, but I think most people especially at work just think I am getting a little fat or something. As most of you know, we are due to shoot a baby out on July 5th, so there is a chance this could be an Independence Day baby. I am trying to post a thing that counts down how many days until the due date and shows the baby's growth. Bare with me if it posts wrong, this is my first time blogging so I don't know if I am doing it right anyway.
