My Wee Babes Look Like Real Babes!

It's official...I am no longer carrying alien amphibian fetuses. THEY ARE REAL BABIES NOW!

[Insert cheers and applause here]

I am 9 weeks and the babies have officially graduated to fetuses. Last week they were merely embryos. *Sigh* They are growing up so fast.

Check out the change for yourself:
                    


They totally look like babies now, right?


9 weeks has been treating me good. I've felt much better the last few days and haven't had to take a nap in my car during work hours all week! That feels like a huge accomplishment. I've got to wait four, YES 4!, weeks for my next appointment which is crazy compared to the weekly pampering I've been receiving lately. The good thing I have to report is that I will most likely be getting an ultrasound at every visit. Most ladies only get two their entire pregnancy so I feel spoiled! My clinic doesn't do sex scans until 20 weeks and that feels like a millennium away...but don't worry, there will be some complaining and begging on my part to try and bump that a few weeks. I'm thinking 17 weeks would be acceptable.
