Yeah we are at 2 months. Go Baby!!! The baby will go from 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch and is about the size of a pinto bean. Eyelid folds are forming on the face and nerve cells in the retina are beginning to develop. The tip of the nose is present and ears are forming inside and out. Elbows are present and the arms and legs extend forward. The digital rays, which become fingers are notched, Toe rays are present on the feet.
I got a few general questions that are in my journal I will be answering every week.
How big am I? I haven't had any weight gain I've at this point lost 2 lbs. I am noticing my clothes are a lot tighter. I can't wear my favorite pair of jeans unless I undo them. I seen a neat way to extend my clothes to make them last longer. I take a hair tie and loop it through the button hole and pull it over and stretch it over the button. I haven't been able to wear anything that is the least bit snug. Then I will also wear a tank top to cover my open jeans and smooth out any bumps then my regular shirt on top of that. Very comfortable.
How am I feeling? Excited...scared... We have our first ultrasound in 2 weeks. There is always the chance something could be wrong. That's probably any parents fear. I just want to see the heart beat and hear that the baby is okay.
How is Derrick feeling? He has the normal new dad fears, that after the baby is born that he isn't gonna matter or that I won't have time for him.
Things I want to ask my Dr.? Nothing so far.
things to do this week? I have this nesting urge to purge everything. Just throw away and get rid of everything we don't need. It's driving me crazy cause all I see is cabinets and closets that need to be redone and I can't do it all in one day. Funny thing is, if I did get it all done I don't think it would matter I would just move onto some thing else.
Special thoughts and feelings about this week? I amazed that in such a short time the baby has totally changed and grown so much. 2 months ago "firecracker" was the size of a poppy seed and now is about 3/4 of an inch long. And I happy because baby actually resembles a human now! LOL. I can't wait for the weeks to come.
Helpful hints for Prego's: There are 3 books I recommend I mentioned the first. Your pregnancy week by week before. the second is the Dad's version of that. Your Pregnancy for the Father to be. I will let you know more about this as he reads it.
Also from the Your Pregnancy Series ...Pregnancy Journal week by week. I have bought the last 2 from amazon.com the were about 5 to 6 dollars a piece new. There are also some other great books in this series like, Over 35 and Pregnant, Pregnancy for women of color, your baby's first year, your guide to twins, quick guide to labor and delivery, and after your pregnancy. I have LOVED!!!!! Your pregnancy week by week. It is one of the best pregnancy books I have seen and I've seen tons.
All my prays and baby dust to my fav TTCer. Soon I pray. *!*!*!*BaBy DuSt*!*!*!*
