The nausea intensifies. I can't watch tv for a long time, or be on the computer for so long, which means I can't scrap for the meantime since it takes me a lot of hours to finish a layout. Blogging from time to time will be fine. I had to tell Nancy about the pregnancy because I'm suppose to be on her CT (creative team). I don't plan to stop scrapbooking. I just need a little time out while the nausea and vomiting are still bugging me. It usually stops after the first trimester, so I'm hoping by the 14th week, my life will be back to normal again. I can't seem to do the things I normally do anymore. I get dizzy, nauseated and throwing up nothing for 3-4x a day. I don't like to see clutter. It makes me sicker to see any clutter. There are times that I just start cleaning up something and then all of a sudden I act like I'm kind of possessed that I can't seem to stop. I do think it's a good thing. Who doesn't want a clean place anyway?
How's my baby growing:
Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. She's constantly moving and shifting, although you won't be able to feel these womb wiggles for several weeks yet. Her embryonic tail is disappearing, and her eyelids practically cover her eyes. Still slightly webbed, her fingers and toes are growing longer. Her arms have lengthened, too, and her hands are now flexed at the wrist and meet over her heart. Her knee joints have formed, and her feet may be long enough to meet in front of her body. With her trunk straightening out, her head is more erect. Breathing tubes extend from her throat to the branches of her developing lungs. The nerve cells in her brain are also branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. Though you may be daydreaming about your baby as one gender or another, the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl.
