Week 9

Week nine and momma is feelin okay. Tired, but well, it's to be expected. Besides who doesn't love an afternoon nap? My appetite is back, well, mostly and I'm definately eating for two these days. I find myself waking up - VERY early with hunger pains... and eating throughout the whole day. Constantly wanting more food. So, for my snacks in between I try to eat lots of good stuff like fruits and yogurt. I had THE best seedless Sunkist orange yesterday, seriously, it was the most delicious orange I've had in forever... so I went back to big y today and bought some more, they were just that good, besides oranges have vitamin c and folic acid... all super for the peanut! Still finicky about certain foods and smells.... and nauseauted from time to time... but i'm dealing, and it's well worth it!

As far as lil peanut goes well, she's about an inch in size, weighs about one gram and she has all the major organs, muscles and nerves. It's truly amazing - last week elbows and lips.. this week organs! Eyelids are beginning to form and the trunk is straightening and elongating. It's wonderful, my lil peanut is growing each day.

I'm anxiously awaiting her arrival.... ! Only 31 more weeks!
