12 weeks pregnant!!

My wife is officialy 3 mths pregnant!!! And we can finally let everyone know she is pregnant! Since the gynae instructed us not to tell during the first 3 mths.

How's the baby coming along at the 12th week

Baby's crown-to-rump length is almost 2.5 inches and should weigh between 8 and 14 grams! You won't be able to feel your baby moving at this time. By the end of this week, your uterus is too large to remain completely in your pelvis. The digestive system is capable of making contractions that push food through the bowels and is also able to absorb sugar. This week may be the first week that you begin to feel better! Morning sickness often tends to improve or diminsih at this time. You will feel more comfortable in loose clothing, such as maternity clothes. In addition to your tummy getting larger your breasts, hips, legs and sides may be getting bigger also. Your baby develops reflexes and the skin is very sensitive. The brain is fully formed, and the child can feel pain. the baby may even suck his thumb. The eyelids now cover the eyes, and will remain shut until the seventh month to protect the delicate optical nerve fibers.
