Eleven Weeks

Lovebug's Stats:
Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.

She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.


Mommy's Stats:
How far along?: 11 Weeks!
Weight gain/loss: Definitely gain...but don't weigh myself.
Symptoms:  burping & constipation are main issues still...but I "might" be feeling better
Maternity clothes?: Yes...broke down and have worn maternity pants 2 times this week, not so much for "need" but for comfort.
Stretch marks?: nope. Moisturizing like crazy!
Sleep:  the minute I am horizontal, no matter the time of day or night
Best moment this week: graduating from the RE!!!!!!!!!!
Food cravings: not much, just still eating lots of soup, carbs and drinking water!

Gender: don't know, but now that I'm on the other side of 10 weeks, it feels like we are closer to finding out!
Belly button in or out?: in, should stay that way. I should think about changing out my belly ring though.
Movement?: I swear I feel gurgles at times.

Signs of Labor: Well I hope not!
What I miss?: enjoying workouts :(
What I'm looking forward to: my first external u/s with my midwife & seeing Stacy again!
Weekly Wisdom: Coffee might be the answer to my prayers at work.  It's really helped when I can stomach down some coffee.
Weekly WTF: New symptom...headaches!  fun!
Milestones: RE graduation day & seeing lovebug move and look like a real baby.  Wow!
