You are 10 weeks along now! Only 3 more until the 1st trimester is done!!!! We can't wait to get there because it is a good point to be at in pregnancy and in your little development!
Baby Changes:
This week you are about the size of a kumquat, sweet pea. You are a little over an inch long and you weigh less than a quarter of an ounce. You have now completed the most critical portion of your development!!! Wahoo! Go Sweet Pea! Now we start the "fetal period". This is when your tissues and organs in your body rapidly grow and mature.
You have started swallowing fluid and kicking up a storm, even though I cannot feel anything. It sounds funny that you are swallowing fluid but you will the whole time! Your kidneys, intestines, brain, and liver are in place and starting to function.
You have tiny nails forming on fingers and toes (no more webbing) and peach-fuzz hair starting to grow on your skin. Isn't that crazy! You already are forming hair and nails!! Your limbs can bend now. Your hands are flexed at the wrist and meet over your heart, and your feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. The outline of your spine is clearly visible through your translucent skin, and spinal nerves are beginning to stretch out from your spinal cord. Your forehead temporarily bulges with your developing brain and sits very high on your head.

Sleep: I am still tired a lot of the time but it is easing up a bit. I am not quite as tired as I was but definitely still feeling the tiredness.
Symptoms: Still nauseous most of the time! Yuck. Still happening most days. Nights are usually worse than days but it comes in waves.
Daddy update: Daddy is doing great. He helps me a lot with Brody and things around the house. He is patient with me on the many nights I just sit and don't want to move and/or fall asleep early.
News:

Days until due date: 210 days - 30 weeks!
