Today I am 5 weeks pregnant. Chris says it’s only 3 weeks because technically, for the first two weeks of your pregnancy, you’re not really pregnant. Whatever. I am 5 weeks according to my doctor, so that’s what I am going with. In about 17 days (but who’s counting?), we get to go for the ultrasound. That’s just crazy! I can’t wait to see it! I’ve kind of forgotten that my birthday is in a week or so. All I really care about is October 1st.
According to the websites, my baby is the size of an appleseed today. An appleseed. So tiny. Even though I know it can’t hear me, I talk to the baby everyday. I ask it how it’s feeling, tell it how excited Daddy and I are, how we can’t wait to meet him or her. This is the week that the heart, brain and lungs start to form, so it’s a very important week! I have had some morning sickness (Friday was awful – I spent most of the morning in the bathroom) and I do get tired out easily. This week, I’m going to try walking around the block with the dogs in add in some exercise. I think the appleseed needs some fresh air and it’s beautiful out today!
