Yep, baby is now the size of a peach. Almost three inches long! Ha, compared to other weeks that sounds enormous but it's not even as long as my coffee cup that I'm savoring (only one per day mind you <insert sarcastic tone and me swirling my finger in the air>) is tall.
So the big news this week...fingerprints.
Fingerprints! It's an identity! Our baby is now identifiable within government systems! lol. No but really, isn't that such a minute detail that somehow is just cool? And how do they know that happens this week???
In other good news, appetite seems to be back which is good. Energy is definitely coming back and am trying to get into a workout routine again (right now I'm heavily relying on prenatal dvds which are great mind you...and hysterical, just trust me, or feel free to borrow one). Another weird symptom? A stuffy nose. I read about this in the Mayo book the other night and apparently it's true, your body develops more mucus in your sinuses in the second trimester so I sound stuffy all the time and blow my nose repeatedly. These symptoms are all just so odd.
Anyway, onward. D is working on Crashed Ice again this long weekend so I'll be filling my schedule with sleep, cleaning, housework, and maybe starting to make moves for the nursery and bathroom (but no worries, I won't actually MOVE anything myself). Until then, I'm off to savor my glorious one cup of caffeine. Promise to write more this weekend and maybe post a pic or two :)
Cheers to the second trimester!
