Sweet Pea

Week 6 - Sweet Pea

I woke around 3am this morning to pee and had 1 last test just to make sure.  I went back to sleep and when I woke up, two lines.  Again.

I went to my OBGYN doctor today.  He did an ultrasound. It's really official.  Like on my medical record official.

He said I'm 6weeks and 6days as of today.  Holy Moly.  I usually get some type of sign if it were someone else but it just didn't hit me. At. All!

I seen the sac, and a little (it looked like a clam shaped thingy from super mario 3 type) bump and what I read online it's the size of a Sweet Pea!

That little clam shaped thingy is my baby!
We didn't hear a heartbeat but it maybe too early for that as far as my doctor was concerned so next week, we will check to see what's going on.  He also had me do some labwork for a 'quantitive' whatever....to make sure my hcg levels keep rising.  SO SAY some prayers because well...just say them. =)

Week 6 Development


My Baby's Development:
My baby's jaw, cheeks, chin, eyes, ears, and nose are beginning to form.  The kidneys, liver, and lungs are developing, and heart is now beating 80 times a minute (and getting faster every day).

Moi:
Frequent urination: mmmm...maybe i've been in the bathroom more often.  Not too sure, haven't kept track.
Fatigue: I thought it was my thyroid.  I guess it's a combination.

Breast tenderness and changes: OHMG yes they are.  I didn't realize until I read this and yes they are sensitive!
Nausea and vomiting: My doctor prescribed me some pills for this. Yay!
Heartburn and indigestion: ugh, I keep burping my lunch.  No bueno!
Bloating:
Increased sense of smell: Ugh, yes, I can smell Cilantro from 2 units away.
