I'm 11 weeks today. Another week down. It seems like it's not going very fast -- not that I'm wanting it to -- but I'm sure the farther along I get, that will change and things will start to go much faster than I want them to.
Right now, I'm really enjoying this pregnancy. Thanks be to God I still haven't had any morning sickness or any other negative symptoms, for that matter. I told someone today that I'm just enjoying it right now, not really wishing I was to the next phase, or wishing for the next ultrasound, etc. I'm really not even showing yet, however, I can tell that my mid-section is changing (those abs I've worked so hard on aren't so noticeable anymore *sigh*). I haven't gained any weight -- actually, I've lost a few pounds -- which I don't understand at all because I really haven't been eating the most healthy things. I am still trying to work out most every day so that must be helping a little bit. I know I'll be gaining weight soon enough so I'm not complaining about my weight loss right now. :)
Our baby has been growing and developing even more over this last week...here's what babycenter.com has to say about what's been going on:
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.
Such an amazing thing...what's happening right there in my belly...
