Jessi is so glad that the first trimester is over. (Tomasz too of course) Starting a new job was not easy with constant nausea and no appetite. The morning sickness started at 7 weeks and finally went away around the 11th week. For anyone else that is pregnant or will be pregnant there are a few things that will quickly become your best friend! Crackers, Toast, Pasta,Ginger Tea and Zofran( prescribed nausea medicine). This was Jessi's steady diet for almost a month. You would think with all the carbohydrates Jessi would have gained a bunch of weight. NOPE. At three months pregnant, Jessi had lost 2 pounds. Most of the weight loss was due to walking approx 2 miles a day(we sold the car when we moved to NY), not drinking alcohol or caffeine, and of course being sick! Thank goodness it is over! In the end it was all worth it to be able to have our little "Peanut".
So "Peanut" has defiantly been growing over the past few weeks. At this point all of the organs have developed and the fingers and toes have separated and are distingusihable. The babies sex is determined at conception, but this is the first week that "peanut" is starting to look like a boy or a girl physically. Still too soon to tell but "Peanut" waived at us when the doctor was doing the ultrasound. Check Out how our baby has developed.
