14 Weeks~Lemon


"Your adorable little fetus is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, and (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys, and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over the body for warmth."

14 weeks pregnant and the baby is the size of a lemon! I can't believe it. Last time I went to the doctor my little one was the size of a prune. LOL! He or she is growing so fast. I can't wait to hear its little heartbeat again on Wednesday.

I'm not getting morning sickness anymore, thank God! I'm still pretty tired, but not as much as I used to be. I still have some food aversions that will make my stomach turn though. I can't be around onions, pickles, or popcorn. =S I'm barely showing at all. You can tell I have a little bump if I lift my shirt up, but you can't tell I'm pregnant at all with my clothes on.

I'm still anxious for my appointment, but I'm not as scared anymore. I posted a thread on babycenter.com and asked if anyone had to have a colposcopy while they were pregnant and what it was like. A lot of women responded. They said it's just like a normal pap, only they put this microscope with a light on it in front of your vag, and they just take a good look in there for about 10 to 15 minutes. They said it's not comfortable, but it's not painful. I'm hoping that everything is okay and they don't have to do the cryofreeze. All the ladies that had that done said that hurts for a couple of days.

*sigh* I'll update everyone on the results and how the appointment goes. In the mean time I'm staying positive. =)
