Went to the doctor yesterday - baby is good. Heart Rate is 168. For those of you who don't know, I had a scary car accident on Sunday but all is well. So very thankful!
I am winding up the first trimester. Things I have been experiencing. Well, not really too much. Grayzor is definitely growing and my tummy muscles are stretching. Baby bump pretty apparent...will take pics this evening.
Other than that - NuSkin business is about to take off. Have a new business partner opening up MD. Looking forward to the amazing results and residual income from that. Have to stay busy and on top of this so I can reap the rewards when Grayor is due.
Will know in a few weeks, the sex. Should we know or not know?? what is your opinion?
What's going on with the baby this week....
Baby's face is looking more human as his eyes have moved to the front of his head and his ears are in place. Hooray! Other amazing fetal highlights this week:
Your baby is able to swallow this week and practices on the amniotic fluid he or she floats in. (And you thought baby food was kind of nasty!) And in case you're wondering how your kid can breathe in all that fluid, here's your answer: Fetuses get oxygen from the blood pumped into their bodies by the placenta and don't breathe with their lungs. Mystery solved!
This is kind of gross, albeit fascinating, so feel free to skip ahead: Your baby's intestines are well under way, but they aren't all where you'd expect them to be. Instead of all being locked away in the body cavity, some are dangling on the outside, in the umbilical cord. Ewwww.
Don't forget to put a baby nail file on your registry—your little nugget's finger- and toenails are forming this week. The chin and nose are also becoming more defined.
Junior has doubled in size over the past two weeks and now weighs almost 1/2 ounce. He's also now around 2 1/2 inches long, about the length of your pinky finger or a Vienna sausage, which, in a few months, will be indistinguishable from one another.

On tap for the second trimester - doing whatever I can since it will probably be the easiest time of the pregnancy. Although I have to say I have been blessed so far with how I feel. Its been amazing! Leland is so supportive and we are both so excited everyday - about the little nuances of this adventure.
Leave a comment... miss and love you all!

I'm glad to hear everything is going well. It would really be fun to NOT know what the sex is, but knowing you -----Mmmmmm!!!
I opt for knowing, the last thing you will want to do after bring the kiddo home is paint and decorate... Just a thought.
