3/23/22 HAPPY 9 WEEKS!

At 9 weeks pregnant, your little one is now about 1 inch long, the size of a medium green olive — but no martinis, please.

The end of the embryo period

Would you believe your baby is only an embryo for one more week and is already developing into a fetus?

The head has straightened out and is more fully developed and the ears are continuing to grow, making baby look more human. Plus, toes are visible, and all of baby's essential organs, like the heart, brain, kidneys, liver and lungs, have begun to develop.

The arms and legs in your soon-to-be-fetus are also spontaneously moving now that minuscule muscles are beginning to develop, though you won't feel your tiny dancer for at least another month or two.


Mommy’s symptoms:


Nausea and morning sickness (sometimes all day)  

Sore breasts on and off

Round ligament pain with mild cramps every now and then

Heartbeat on the Doppler

Cravings-strawberry’s and chocolate hummus/krogers chicken salad sandwiches ðŸ˜œ

Leg and toe cramps

Weight gain 3lbs

Aversion to hot coffee at times

Ginger/B6 candies have been a lifesaver for nausea
