12 WEEKS PREGNANT

This week Baby Harper #3 is about 2.1? long and weighs .49 oz or about the size of a plum.? And he/she has developed reflexes! Baby?s fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. His intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine into his bladder.? Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in baby?s brain, synapses are forming furiously. His face looks unquestionably human: His eyes have moved from the sides to the front of his head, and his ears are right where they should be.? And this is what Baby Harper #3 looks like this week?

About me & Baby Harper #3 this week?.

Symptoms:?? Well as long as I wear my PsiBands and eat about every hour and a half I am doing a good job of keeping the nausea away.? That sore and swollen issue I was having down below? ya, that become itchy and red too.? So I went to the doctor and turns out I had a yeast infection. Oh joy.

Weight Gain: Lost another pound?. 158.

Cravings:? Lots of fruit and grilled cheese.? Super cheesy grilled cheese.? Oh and I have been munching on honey graham crackers a lot lately.

Food Aversions:? Sweets? I want nothing to do with chocolate, cookies, donuts?. keep that stuff far far away from me.

What made me cry this week:? Wow? I don?t think I cried?..

Medical Stuff:? Last Friday I went to the OB and got to hear the heart beat for the first time.? It was a good strong heart beat and was beating at 159 bpm.? I then had to answer a million questions about my, Dustin, and our family?s medical history for genetic screening.? I then had to turn down all the genetic testing?. there is nothing in our history that causes any concern and I don?t like how many false positives there are with those tests.? Plus I?m only 27? and well it wouldn?t matter what the test would say.? God gives me what I am meant to have and that?s how it?s gonna be? no need to stress.

Thoughts from Dilly:? Well?. Dilly informed me that boys are dumb.? I asked her if she has a brother if he will be dumb.? To which she replied ?No!? Brothers are not dumb, just boys!?? Hmmmm??

Something I am excited about: The end of the first trimester.? YAY!!!!
