Physical State: All I have to say is PRAISE THE LORD FOR VITAMIN B-6. 50 mg a day is good for what ails you (at least in the Morning Sickness department). My queasiness is about 99% gone which is FABULOUSLY FANTASTIC. !!!! :-)
Oh yeah, the baby? Would you guys like to hear something about the baby once in a while instead of just these utterly self-absorbed ramblings? Here's the 8-week update from Baby Center:
" Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. She's constantly moving and shifting, although you won't be able to feel these womb wiggles for several weeks yet. Her embryonic tail is disappearing, and her eyelids practically cover her eyes. Still slightly webbed, her fingers and toes are growing longer. Her arms have lengthened, too, and her hands are now flexed at the wrist. Her knee and elbow joints have formed so she can now bend both, and her feet may be long enough to meet in front of her body. With her trunk straightening out, her head is more erect. Breathing tubes extend from her throat to the branches of her developing lungs. The nerve cells in her brain are also branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. Though you may be daydreaming about your baby as one gender or another, the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl."
And here's a picture:
We're going for an ultrasound of Friday so if possible I'll post a picture of that as well. :-)Emotional: Happy! Overwhelmed with homework a little bit! Glad the queasiness is gone! Yay!
Must go Homework now.
Love to all,
Neb
