This week our baby is the same size as a lime; somewhere between 1.5-2.4 inches at this point, which also makes Sprouty the same size as:
One green tree frog.
I dont know why but somehow this makes it more real. Things that are ALIVE are this size- alive and that DO THINGS. Kind of like the things that Sprout can do now such as:
Feel with their hands (and has non-webbed fingers!)
Move their limbs- aka wave and kick!
Grow fingernails (I don't think limes or tree frogs can to that, so score one for Sprout).
Swallow!
This is getting serious people.
I am hoping that things will be getting better at this point re the whole morning sickness misery. I have started having some changes with my eating that I take as a good sign- such as not wanting to vomit at the sight of ALL veggies, drinking tea again (why didn't I like TEA?! I love tea!), it is decaf before you start screaming that I am murdering my lime-frog-baby.
Also I have a little bump. It feels MUCH more huge to me than it looks in this picture. This picture just makes me look fat, now that I think about it. But my hair looks nice!
