Monday update

You are currently in Week 9

From APA

What changes are occurring with your body?
You still may not physically appear pregnant to other people, but you definitely are beginning to notice several changes. It may be that you are experiencing mood swings, and/or you may notice an increase in heartburn and feeling more bloated. These are common complaints of pregnancy.

What is happening with your baby?
While your baby is still extremely small, he/she is now ready for rapid weight gain. The baby is beginning to look more like a little person since the embryonic tail is completely gone by week 9. The eyelids are fully formed, have fused shut, and will open again during week 28.
All the baby's joints such as the knees, elbows, shoulders, ankles, and wrists are working and allowing the baby to move about freely within the amniotic sac. Your baby's heart began beating around day 24, but now his/her heart has divided into four chambers, and the valves are beginning to develop. Your baby can also make a fist, and he/she may begin sucking his/her thumb.

How big is your baby?
Your baby is about the size of a grape, measuring about 1 ½ inches from its head to its rump, and weighs a fraction of an ounce.

The arms and legs are getting longer, and the fingers might be a little swollen where the touch pads are forming. The head is more erect and the neck is more developed. Your baby now moves its body and limbs, and this movement can be visible during an ultrasound, but you won't be able to feel it yet. Your uterus is continuing to grow, and your waistline is thickening. Weight gain is small, (2lbs so far) if at all, since you could be experiencing food aversions (or cravings), heartburn, indigestion, nausea and bloating.
