For the first half of the week, my nausea had come back but the last two days it's disappeared again. Hopefully the coming and going of the nausea is a sign that it's soon to end. I look forward to that. I'm not as cold all the time like I was the first 10 weeks of my pregnancy. I think my hormones are leveling off. My weight gain has slowed down also. I've been pretty consistent in weight now for a few weeks. Hopefully, I'll start looking my weeks in pregnancy instead of a few months ahead! I'm looking forward to feeling the baby soon. I hope it is sooner than I did with the girls which was between 17 and 19 weeks.
Our baby is a whopping 3 1/2 inches long and is 1 to 2 ounces. S/he begins to practice inhaling and exhaling movements. The eyes and ears continue to move and develop, the neck is still getting longer, and the baby's chin no longer rests on his/her chest. The hands are becoming functional, and the baby is beginning to learn to move/use them (probably more reflex than anything). At this point, our little one is receiving all of his/her nourishment from the placenta.
