10 weeks

I'm still feeling good overall. Exhausted some days, a few headaches here and there, but no nausea so I'm very thankful for that. I can't complain -- this pregnancy has been so enjoyable! Even when I have a splitting headache (which really has only been a few times), knowing WHY I have that headache makes it worth it. I can get thru any "ugh" feelings knowing it's for our little Langham!

My other pregnancy book (The Pregnancy Book) describes the whole month in one paragraph, so I'll include that exerpt closer to the end of the month. It's so much fun to read about how our little one is growing each week! My mom asked the other day what fruit the baby is this week...looks like he/she is a prune. :)

From "What to Expect When You're Expecting"
At nearly 1.5 inches long (about the size of a prune), your baby is growing by leaps and bounds. And in gearing up for those first leaps and bounds (and baby steps), bones and cartilage are forming -- and small indentations on the legs are developing into knees and ankles. Even more unbelievably for someone the size of a prune, the elbows on baby's arms are already working. Tiny buds of baby teeth are forming under the gums. Further down, the stomach is producing digestive juices, the kidneys are producing larger quantities of urine, and, if your baby's a boy, his testes are producing testosterone (boys will be boys - even this early on!).
