8 Weeks

This week went well and although morning sickness which hits me around 4 pm is getting worse I have finally learned how not to push myself. I am also learning to get in all my fruits and veggies so that is important.

Friday’s u/s was amazing we saw and HEARD the baby’s heart beating. It was 158 beats per minute which is great and well with in the normal range of 120 to 180. I cried when we saw the baby. I was so thankful she is still there and doing well. R got kinda weepy eyed to and it is so fun to watch his face light up. We are both so excited and grateful to be pg.

This week the baby is the size of a raspberry, the leg and arm buds are continuing to grow and now the ends are forming into hands and feet. The fingers and toes are still webbed and WAY to small to see on an u/s but they are there. The eyes are almost completely covered by the eyelids now and the branches of the lungs are developing.
