I've been getting hungrier and able to eat more of my food, which is awesome since all the restaurants I like serve ginormous portions. The weather is finally getting awesome too, so it's about time I head to H&M and Garden Ridge (I know, strange) and pick up a bunch of cheap/well priced empire waisted spring tops and dresses. I'm still not really showing yet, at least not to the point where I need maternity tops, but I like being comfortable and whatnot.

| Poking out a little bit now! |
I think I decided that I probably didn't feel a kick, but I have felt some kind of movement in there. There are times when baby's little...something...decides to get lodged in the front of my abdomen for a minute or two. Lower back pain and heartburn are commonly ailments about this time, but I'm happy to report I don't have either of those. Constipation on the other hand, well I wont get into it, but it's there. I started having a bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats in the morning and its been helping.
This week in baby development:
- Blood vessels visible through baby's think skin
- Ears in final position, though possibly standing out a bit from baby's head
- Baby girl's uterus and fallopian tubes are in place
- Baby boy's genitals are noticeable
- Baby is yawning, stretching, hiccuping, sucking its thumb, twisting and rolling about
- Baby is about 5.5 inches long (there's a bell pepper in there now!) and weighs about 7 ounces
Still working on drinking water. It's just not that appealing to me and it occurred to me that the more you drink, the more you want. That's not a bad thing until you're a slave to the toilet, which I'm not comfortable with but need to GET comfortable with. *le sigh*
