Mac # 3: 11 weeks

Everything is about the same this week. Still feeling the same and tired as all get out. I've slowed down in the belly growth. The baby doubles in size this week and I think that is why I'm so tired besides keeping up with a 1 and almost 3 year old!

Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.

She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.

My poor eyes! You can see how swollen they are from this stupid weather and being tired!
