Well, this is interesting! I feel like it kinda came out of nowhere! A co-worker explained to me the reason I'm showing already is because I'm so SHORT! Omg, it makes total sense. Here I was freaking out, but now I know it's because baby only has room to grow out, not up and down! But you asked for a pic of the bump, so here it is. Btw, in the future I most likely will not include my face. Anyone who knows me knows how much I HATE pictures of myself. You're lucky this time.... ;)
But on another note, I'm a couple days shy of 9 weeks! That also means I'm heading into my last month of the first trimester. This week the baby is about 1 inch, the size of a green olive. Its facial features are becoming more distinct and starting to look more like a baby (this is all from the books I'm reading). Tiny muscles are starting to form this week, which means it's starting to move its little feet and arms! I won't be able to feel it for at LEAST another month, though. Its fingers and toes are about complete. Its eyelids almost cover its eyes and its nose has a shape now! And the diaphragm is developing this week. It's so weird and cool and exciting! Next week (in case I don't get to update), baby will be the size of a prune, and then a LIME! It's growing so fast!
Until next time...

ReplyDeleteyou look fantastic Sarah!
ReplyDeleteI had the same issue, I showed really early because I was so short and have practically no torso! That also fooled the doctor towards the end and she started thinking that baby Collin was huge - upwards of 10 pounds - but with a late ultrasound they determined that it was just because my uterus and baby had no place else to go but out and that's why I was measuring so large. (he ended up only being 7 pounds 1 ounce.) You will be fine and it just means you will have a very cute and obvious bump.
Congrats again and again and thanks for keeping us posted. The ultrasound pics are great!
