Feeling Sick

This what my baby should look like now (taken from web)

This week marks the beginning of the embryonic period which spans from the 6th to 10th weeks of pregnancy or the 4th or 8th weeks of fetal development. This period is crucial for your baby's organ development. Most malformations originate during this critical period. Although your baby's heart is no bigger than a poppy seed right now, it may be possible to see baby's heartbeat on an ultrasound screen; your baby's lungs have formed and the brain is beginning to develop. Over the next 5 months, more than 100 billion neurons will be formed in the brain, laying the necessary groundwork for a lifetime of learning. By the end of this week, your baby will be 2-4mm (0.08-0.16 in) long from crown to rump (distance from the top of the baby’s head to its rump or buttocks).


OMG! i feel so sick today. I was supposed to do the school run but when i got out of bed the sickness was so bad that i had to lie down on the sofa. I'm never actually sick but its just as bad. It lingers for so long and the only way i've found of making it less is if i eat a little bit of something, but the last thing you want to do when you feel sick is eat anything! Toast seems to be working or a cup of tea, drink of milk or ginger biscuit. Tomato soup in a mug tricks you into thinking its a drink so, thats a good one to have as well. It took some getting up from the sofa this morning but with a 2 year old wanting all of your attention, it had to be done. The thing is the minute you have a bit of food you start to feel a little better, it never actually goes away but an improvement is better than nothing.

I had my ECG yesterday and although the nurse that did it says she couldn't 'officially' tell me it was ok, it looked ok to her. I haven't heard anything from the doctors today so, i guess she was right.
