11 Weeks

Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.


She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.

     So far my pregnancy has been fairly easy. I have been a little nauseous but not to the point of running to the bathroom. This pregnancy is very different from my first. With Jeffrey I was sick every day, I was hot, I had aversions to smells, and I craved sweet foods. This time around I am the complete opposite. I guess between Jeffrey going to school twice a week, Awana and church I just don't have the time for pregnancy symptoms.
    I went to the doctor around my 7th week of pregnancy and then I switched doctors and went in at my 10th week. It was amazing to see how much the baby grew in just three weeks. It went from a little blob to a distinguishable baby. During our ultrasound the doctor took the time to let us see our baby move. It was very neat to see the movements of such a tiny baby.
