Week 9

According to ivillage this is what the baby would look like right now! Luck for us we have our first ultrasound on Thursday, so we will be able to see if that is really the case. So far so good. No morning sickness really. I feel a little queasy when I need to eat, but other then that no sickness. Sleepiness and hunger are an entirely different story! I read these books about pregnant women who don't eat because they worry about getting fat. I don't get it all, I never really experienced the NEED to eat like I do now.

Here some info on what is going on with baby this week:
This week, your baby-to-be grows to between 20 and 28 millimeters from crown to rump, or about an inch. Weighing in at one gram, your baby is very active, although you can't feel its movements. He or she now has all the major organs, muscles and nerves. A Doppler may be able to identify the heartbeat. While testes and ovaries are formed, external genitalia appear sexless, which is why it is too early for an ultrasound to reveal gender. Eyelids are beginning to form and the trunk is straightening and elongating.
