Week 9: The babies are the size of green olives.
What's going on in there: They are now about 1 inch long, the size of a medium green olive. 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 are also spontaneously moving now that minuscule muscles are beginning to develop, though they won't be felt for at least another month or two.
Next appointment: 12/29/20 for blood work
Feeling: So tired! I could sleep all day, but I don't. It is easier to deal with the fatigue by taking breaks during the day to rest. My appetite is definitely returning and I think the boys are in favor of spicy and sweet things, but not together!
Weight: 159
31 weeks to go!
