If you have felt nauseated during the last weeks, (oh yes I have) the sickness may gradually lessen from now onward. (praise the Lord there's a light at the end of this tunnel.) The amount of blood circulating through your body has stared to increase, and will go on increasing until about the 30th week. You should be discovering what childbirth classes are available, since they often get booked up early. Your baby's testicles or ovaries have formed at this point,(oh I can't wait to find out if it's a boy or girl) as have all it's major organs. These will not develop much further, although they continue to grow inside the uterus. The baby is relatively safe from the risk of developing and congenital abnormalities from the end of this week.
So there you have it. i love one of the websites I go on because the baby is always the size of something and this week it is the size of a kumquat. My sister was calling baby poppy, baby peanut, baby grape, all kinds of things so this week its baby kumquat.
Happy October!!!!!

We love you, Baby Kumquat!! :D
That's what got me through the early days of pregnancy - when exhaustion and morning sickness loom on and on, and there are no outward signs (aside from bags under your eyes) that you're pregnant... I read EVERYTHING I could about how our little bebe was growing. It's so incredible!
:D
Well, I'm reading your post for the first time today and now you're almost 12 weeks! WOW! So what is "baby" this week???
