8 weeks

There it is, the first "baby bump" picture at 8 weeks! We are 20% of the way there and boy, am I starting to feel it!

Baby changes this week:
Our baby is the size of a raspberry this week! He or she has already reached it's first graduation stage. Goodbye embryo, hello fetus! It has ended his or her embryonic stage and is entering into the fetal period. It's webbed fingers and toes are poking out from our baby's hands and feet, It's eyelids practically cover it's eyes and breathing tubes extend from it's throat to the branches of his or hers developing lungs.

Things I've been experiencing this week:
Extreme fatigue, nauseousness, food aversions, headaches and a 2 pound total weight gain.

Thank you all for being so uplifting and supportive with your comments thus far! It’s so comforting to know that you guys are there for Mason and I, we really appreciate it!
