8 weeks!

I can't believe it's a month since I tested and found out we're expecting our baby! The nausea has been slightly less frequent. I think 2 days this week it was there from the time I woke up in the morning until I went to bed at night. On the most part it's from dinnertime until bedtime. I lost one of my seabands last week (the anti-sickness wrist bands). But got a new set today We got them at the supermarket, and put them on as soon as I got home - I'm determined to feel good all day today!

All in all, I just feel "normal" apart from the nausea. I have Monday-Friday to work, and then Stewart & I are on holiday from work for 2 weeks!! I can't wait!! We're both in need of the rest. And the second Wednesday of our hols is our first hospital appointment (9th July).

And now for jellybean!!:

Woohoo! You've got one whole inch of baby inside of you! Your little embryo has finally reached the one-inch mark (30mm). And if it were possible to take a peek, you could actually see your tiny baby without a telescope! What?s more, your baby is finally starting to take on some very distinct human features. For starters, their little tail (really just the spinal cord) has disappeared completely. It?s nice to know your baby can no longer be mistaken for a sea creature! Additionally, both their toes and fingers are prominent with very little, if any, webbing. Upper and lower limbs all show recognizable joints (elbows and knees) and the lower limb bones are starting to ossify. But don?t expect your baby to resemble either parent quite yet. Right now, your baby?s head is disproportionately larger than the rest of their body--making up almost half of your little one?s height and weight!

1 inch!!! Our clever little baby is this big: <------------->
