Week 14!

Wow, time flies! It's already the second trimester!
I am already 14 weeks pregnant, starting to show and so excited! I can't wait for my next ultrasound. But what I am most looking forward to is finally feeling my little bean move inside me. I need that reassurance that its still in there lol.

Next week is mt second Doctor's appointment and I will also be getting my referral for my obstetrician. Hopefully when I see him I can hear the baby's heartbeat as well! 

This week's big developments: Your baby can now squint, frown, grimace, pee, and possibly suck it's thumb! Thanks to brain impulses, it's little facial muscles are getting a workout as it's tiny features form one expression after another.



 My baby's stretching out. From head to bottom, my baby measures 3 1/2 inches — about the size of a lemon — and weighs 1 1/2 ounces. Little Bean's body's growing faster than it's head, which now sits upon a more distinct neck. By the end of this week, baby's arms will have grown to a length that's in proportion to the rest of its little body. (It's legs still have some lengthening to do.) My baby is starting to develop an ultra-fine, downy covering of hair, called lanugo, all over its body. My baby's liver starts making bile this week — a sign that it's doing its job right — and its spleen starts helping in the production of red blood cells.

And here is some baby cuteness to brighten your Monday!
