Books!!!

Here is a list of my monthly reading!!!~ Once again fantastic books and I also became a fan of James Patterson!!!!

12 Weeks

Baby is the size of a plum!

The average fetus at 12 weeks is about 2.1 inches long and .49 ounces. Now that babyhas got pretty much all it's parts, it's main job is to keep on growing.

• Most of baby's critical systems are fully formed!
• Baby is about to enter the growth and maturation stage, in which it's organs and tissues will grow and develop rapidly.
• Baby is now developing reflexes -- if you poke it's body, it will likely move.
• Baby is opening and closing it's fingers and curling it's toes, too.
• Baby's brain is developing fast!

Holy bucket's 3 months just flew by!!! At our appointment Matt and I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. 150/ bpm. Matt was amazed! We asked our doctor lots of ?'s or well I did since I need to know about certain foods(myth or fact). She also let us know that she will not induce me, but will not let me go past 42 weeks.. Yeah my body..NOT.lol

10 Weeks

Baby is the size of a prune!

Now, baby is  about 1.2 inches long and weighs about .14 ounces. It's body length will almost double in the next three weeks.

• Baby has working arm joints, and her cartilage and bones are forming.
• Baby's vital organs are fully developed and they're starting to function.
• Baby's fingernails and hair are starting to appear, too.
• Plus, it's swallowing and kicking in there. (Can you believe it?!)

During 10 weeks I was exhausted, I could sleep all the time if I allowed myself to. I literally would get home from work and just lounge.. WOW.. I was not sick thank goodness but this baby is very strange. I'm not starving and I don't really have cravings. To be honest I'm not really hungry at all but I know I have to eat so I just eat a lot of fruit and veggies! 

Baby Stephenson!!!

Well the Cat is out of the bag, Matthew and I are going to have a baby come May 2013!!! We are a mixture of excited, terrified, thrilled, and overwhelmed and we are only 3 months in.. LOL!!
