10 Weeks!
This week has brought a huge improvement in the way I have been feeling. On Monday, I left a GATE meeting realizing I haven't felt nauseous in about two hours (I further realized that that was the first two hours in about 4 weeks that I hadn't NOT felt nauseous. Just that little break did wonders for me, but really, for the most part, the nausea hasn't come back. Fingers crossed!!! I am still feeling tired, and I have realized that under the nausea I have also had indigestion, so I'm not feeling great, but I am feeling much better.
Although he's barely the size of a kumquat -- a little over an inch or so long, crown to bottom -- and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce, your baby now has completed the most critical portion of his development. This is the beginning of the so-called fetal period, a time when the tissues and organs in his body rapidly grow and mature. If you could take a peek inside your womb, you'd spot minute details, like tiny nails forming on fingers and toes (no more webbing) and peach-fuzz hair beginning to grow on tender skin.
