Week 8 - Month 2


I've been feeling nauseous again most days.  I was in California for work this week and tried to hide that I didn't feel all the best.  I think I succeeded but I think my belly is already starting to give me away.  I can't suck it in very well anymore and I feel like I look very bloated.  I know from my last pregnancy that you start showing earlier than the first but this feels very early to me.  I wonder if my uterus has already started moving up or if I'm just putting on weight!  Either way, I'm ready to be past this stage.

I have my first ultra sound on Tuesday.  I'm looking forward to it.  These next few days couldn't go any faster.

I've now completed my second month of pregnancy.  Our baby's elbows are beginning to form in the arms and fingers are starting to develop. The leg buds are beginning to show feet with tiny notches for the toes. His/her face continues to change as the ears, eyes and the tip of the nose appear. The intestines start to form in the umbilical cord. Teeth develop under the gums.  Our baby has a crown to rump length of about 1/2 to 3/4 inches, or about the size of a pinto bean.

My uterus is supposed to be the size of a orange now.
