11 Weeks (July 6 - 12)

This week I'm still getting sick as usual but I am able to get on the computer a little bit better now. For the past few days, I have been browsing through Motherhood and already picked like 5 outfits I'm ready to buy, haha! Who am I kidding here? I don't even look pregnant yet but I am so excited to buy those big clothes already? I kept asking hubby to pay for it but he seemed to be hesitant so I might just go ahead and get them myself this weekend. How about that? I'm so bad. At least that's not final though. I am going to think about it over again. I still don't have any cravings at this time but then again, I never had any on my previous pregnancies. I'm still in a constant hunt for foods that I can handle. So, that's it for now. I'll be back next week for more.

How my baby's growing:

Your fig-sized baby is now fully formed — measuring 1 1/2 inches long and weighing in at a quarter of an ounce. His skin is still transparent, allowing many of his blood vessels to show through. Some of his bones are beginning to harden, and tiny toothbuds are starting to appear under his gums. His fingers and toes have separated, and he may soon be able to open and close his fists. He's already busy kicking and stretching, and his tiny movements are so fluid they look like water ballet. These movements will increase as his body grows and becomes more developed and functional. As his diaphragm develops, your tiny tenant may also start to get the hiccups. Because he's still so small, though, you won't feel any of his workouts or intrauterine gulps until sometime between weeks 16 and 20.
