Week 6

So, week 6 into this party we call pregnancy and the "morning sickness" has hit FULL FORCE.  And whoever named it morning sickness was just sugar coating it.  It's more like all time, wanting to rip your stomach out, constantly wanting to puke, sickness....not fun.  Oh well, it finally got bad enough that my doc gave me some sweet pills to make me not so sick, so here's hoping they work. :)  In the wake of all this though, Cam's Clark Kent glasses have come off and he's stepping into the "super dad" role very nicely. :)

And, the reason for all this ickiness is a cute, little, weird looking baby that now is about one 1/2 inch from head to bum.  It's heart is now working and he/she is starting to grow little arms and legs.  It still has a tail but this week the central nervous system, the circulatory system, and organs like the liver and pancreas are developing.  He/she is also developing a spine this week!  Growing up a storm and still so small!!  I'm REALLY excited for when we can figure out if it's a boy or a girl :)  I want to start buying things :)

  1. Oh my gosh. There's a baby widget. That's intense. Sorry about the morning sickness though.

  2. Slowly but surely growing into a fine-looking tadpole, Kay :) Sorry the sickness started up--did you really think you'd get off that easy, though?

    How are the pills working for your nausea?

  3. Yeah, I was hoping, but not really expecting that it would skip me :) The pills are working really well though, I'm almost back to normal sometimes! :)
