10 weeks

Here's what's happening with Baby Birke this week:

• Our baby has grown to about 1 1/2 inches long.
• Bones and cartilage are forming.
• Small indentations on the legs are developing into knees and ankles.
• The elbows on our baby's arms are already working.
• Tiny buds of baby teeth are forming under the gums.
• The stomach is producing digestive juices.
• The kidneys are producing larger quantities of urine.
• If our baby's a boy, he's already producing testosterone.

I feel pretty much the same as last week. I'm still experiencing sleepiness and frequent trips to the bathroom. I'm still craving sours and I'm having the same aversions too. This week I've had a cold and it really stinks because there's hardly any medicine you can take when you're pregnant. I've been taking plain Sudafed and it's been helping some.
