Week 12: Reflexes and heartburn

This week Baby is developing reflexes! Fingers flexing, toes curling, eyes squinching, mouth sucking. Baby will also respond if I push on my belly now (though I won't feel the response from the 2 incher). According to my dentist, I should be careful stimulating the baby too much because I run the risk of having a stimulus-needy child if so. So we're being careful not to prod too much.

I love that people like to compare baby size to food. Right now Baby is a cross between a fig and a lime. Mmmmm tasty.

On the not-so exciting side, I was feeling nauseous over the weekend. I may have entered the heartburn stage. Let's hope I have similar luck like I had with morning sickness (i.e. none).

On Thursday we'll meet the doctor for the first time and get another ultrasound! So we'll get to see if Baby looks more like a fig or a lime.
