8 weeks

Exactly one week from today, we will hear the heartbeat of our little "bean".
I am super stoked. I hope to of course have everything go perfect.
Over this last weekend, I went on a trip with Lisa, Lida Marie and Rosemarie. We headed up to Louisiana to see our friend Bridget get married. I almost got sick on the trip, but due to the expertise of Lisa and her BFF Tara, I fought it off. The consensus of the seasoned Mothers on this trip, meaning Lisa and Tara is that I am sticking out too far to be only one bean in there. We will see if they are right soon enough!
Days have been tough lately. I get super tired and feel awful around 4:30 or 5pm. It lasts all evening, and sometimes all night. Evidently this Bean is a Party Animal! So here is what it looks like inside this week.


How your baby's growing:

New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl. Either way, your baby — about the size of a kidney bean — is constantly moving and shifting, though you still can't feel it.


Coming Next Week!
THE BABY POOL! You get to guess when Bean will be born!
