Week 7 - Our little blueberry!



The big news this week: Hands and feet are emerging from developing arms and legs — although they look more like paddles at this point than the tiny, pudgy extremities you're daydreaming about holding and tickling. Technically, your baby is still considered an embryo and has something of a small tail, which is an extension of her tailbone. The tail will disappear within a few weeks, but that's the only thing getting smaller. Your baby has doubled in size since last week and now measures half an inch long, about the size of a blueberry.

And in true form, I did start getting a little bit of morning sickness. Just like with both girls, it starts out with what I called "car sickness". Although, "morning sickness" would be a dream instead of afternoon sickness, evening sickness, midnight sickness, morning sickness, mid-morning sickness, mid-afternoon sickness, early evening sickness, pre-meal and post-meal sickness....well, you get the idea. So far so good, considering I feel this way because I'm being used to create a life! How awesome is that!!!
