Okay I'm still not 100% but at least I can say that I'm feeling a little bit better. I've tried to keep myself busy this week by going out to dinner with friends and shopping, I think that's helped. I can't believe my little munchkin is the size of an apple! That's pretty exciting!!! Like I said, I went to dinner with some friends last night and some of them have kids, they gave me some good advise and made the whole labor & delivery experience a little less scary. Only 5 1/2 more months and I finally get to meet my little angel!!!

How your baby's growing:
Your growing baby now measures about 4 inches long, crown to rump, and weighs in at about 2 1/2 ounces (about the size of an apple). She's busy moving amniotic fluid through her nose and upper respiratory tract, which helps the primitive air sacs in her lungs begin to develop. Her legs are growing longer than her arms now, and she can move all of her joints and limbs. Although her eyelids are still fused shut, she can sense light. If you shine a flashlight at your tummy, for instance, she's likely to move away from the beam. There's not much for your baby to taste at this point, but she is forming taste buds. Finally, if you have an ultrasound this week, you may be able to find out whether your baby's a boy or a girl! (Don't be too disappointed if it remains a mystery, though. Nailing down your baby's sex depends on the clarity of the picture and on your baby's position. He or she may be modestly curled up or turned in such a way as to "hide the goods.")
