Hello 2nd trimester :)
This week baby E is squinting, frowning, grimacing, peeing and possibly sucking her thumb. She's also getting bigger! From the top of her head to her cute little butt, she's most likely about 3.5 inches now and about 1.5oz. Her body is growing too, so she's not all head. The most exciting part is that she's moving about, but I can't feel anything yet. Anyday now though...I felt Ethan around 18 weeks, and they say second babies can be felt earlier - so pretty soon!
I am feeling much better. Haven't been nauseous since maybe mid 1st trimester and while I'm still tired, I'm not AS tired. Instead of wanting to fall asleep at my desk at work, I want to fall asleep as soon as I get home - I suppose that's a small improvement!
In good news, I only have to test my blood sugar 2x a day now (fasting and after dinner) - my OB was pleased with my levels so far and even said something along the lines of how I'm a diagnosed diabetic that isn't diabetic. Even though I failed my glucose tests, my blood sugars have been perfectly normal. Yay :)
Here's the weekly picture - I am definitely starting to show, at least Chris and I can tell.
