Well... I'm pretty sure there's just one grape in there. I read a couple of pages in one of the pregnancy books we have lying around and my hormone level should peak this month. Which could account for the way I've been feeling (worse), but the good news is, this should be as bad as it gets.
Pretty much everyone knows that we're pregnant... I'm sure we've missed a few people, but we're not NOT telling people at this point.
None of my pants fit me anymore. It's not so much that I can't do them up... it's just that any amount of pressure on my stomach hurts -so I've resorted to wrapping a hair band around the button and giving myself an extra inch or two. Luckily I wear long shirts to cover it up. I went into a store yesterday to buy a new pair... but I left because I just didn't have the energy to try anything on. Pretty lazy, huh?
Your new resident is nearly an inch long — about the size of a grape — and weighs just a fraction of an ounce. Your baby's heart finishes dividing into four chambers, and the valves start to form — as do her tiny teeth. The embryonic "tail" is completely gone. Your baby's organs, muscles, and nerves are kicking into gear. The external sex organs are there but won't be distinguishable as male or female for another few weeks. Her eyes are fully formed, but her eyelids are fused shut and won't open until 27 weeks. She has tiny earlobes, and her mouth, nose, and nostrils are more distinct.

This isn't about your post; but I need to know a few things about you (as our friendship contract is about to renew):
Things I need to know about you and your baby (this goes for you too Justin):
What is your position on:
1. Child's voice on the answering machine?
2. People touching your belly (without asking)?
3. You having others touch your belly (without them asking)?
4. Eating food that was previously in your child's mouth?
5. Lifting your child up to smell its butt in public?
6. Your child running around the room in sacrament?
7. Diapers as the only clothing in public?
8. The gateway as a recurring water park retreat?
9. Using the term "Sorry...I'm pregnant."?
More to come.
