Of course I have signed up for a million different newsletters.. all in my exuberance.
From Pregnancy Weekly, to ask baby, to a million and one baby names (i know), what to expect, what not to expect, pre natal yoga (sigh).. you get the drift. The ones I enjoy the most is ask baby and pregnancy weekly. They are usually in synch with exactly what is happening with my body and my emotions. This was my newsletter for today!

"Hi amanda,
how are you sleeping these days? Frequent trips to the bathroom, late night hunger, and the millions of plans, hopes and dreams that are racing through your head can all contribute to sleepless nights. Getting enough rest is important to your health, so take a warm, relaxing bath, get your thoughts down on paper, and try to get as much sleep as possible. "


"Your Baby

All the major organs are formed
Your baby is about one inch from crown to rump - or roughly the size of a strawberry. Weighing in at two grams, your baby is very active, although it is too tiny for you to feel its movements yet. He or she now has all the major organs, muscles, and nerves; and a Doppler may be able to find its heartbeat. While his or her testes or ovaries are formed, the external genitalia still appear sexless, which is why it is too early for an ultrasound to reveal its gender. Eyelids are beginning to form and the trunk is straightening and elongating, cartilage and bones are forming, the basic structures of the eyes are in place, and the tongue is beginning to develop. The fingers and thumb are visible, albeit short and webbed."

Yayyy you!

This is you now.
