Yikes

I should update more. :)

No more spotting since Thursday, so that's a good. It may be thyroid related and my nurse put me on a week's light activity. So Sunday at my sister's I mostly sat while everyone else worked their butts off painting and such. I entertained dogs and dispensed drinks.

(She's moving to Kalamazoo MI at the end of this month, her husband to follow once his immigration stuff comes through.)

I have been able to eat more. Friday I was a bit flipped out and that made me nauseous and Saturday also was a bit tense, but since then it's been pretty smooth sailing. So that should help. I feel like I have a bit more energy too: not as much as I usually do by any stretch of the imagination, but I don't feel like I'm going to pass out at 5:30 either.

My belly itches sometimes, a familiar pregnancy feeling. I'd better find some cream for it. :)

Hmmm what else. I'll quote Babycenter:

Your belly may soon be big enough to announce to the world that you're
expecting, but your baby is still tiny. In fact, he's only about 3 inches long
crown to rump — roughly the size of a jumbo shrimp — and weighs just about an
ounce. Despite the small proportions, there's a fully formed baby inside your
womb now. Much more proportional than it was a few weeks ago, his head is now
only about a third the size of his body. His tiny, unique fingerprints are
already in place. His kidneys and urinary tract are functional, and he's
starting to urinate out the amniotic fluid he's been swallowing. As you start
your second trimester, most of your baby's critical development will be
completed, and your odds of miscarriage will drop considerably.
