No more shots!! HOORAY!!!

HOORAY I was not sure this day would ever get here! I've been doing shots for so long now I am THRILLED to not have any more. Steve is even more thrilled since he had to do my nightly PIO shot.

On another note, I am 8 weeks today and still feeling great! Had a slight touch of YUCK this morning after I had my yogurt parfait but am feeling better now. Fun times!

Here is the 8 week update:

How your baby's growing:New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl. Either way, your baby — about the size of a kidney bean — is constantly moving and shifting, though you still can't feel it.

Ah, Shannon, I am just so excited for you. It's like I am reliving my whole experience through you! I tell you...yogurt was NOT my friend. I lived on that stuff before I got pg. I pretty much haven't had it since. Back in Jan when I had to go in the hospital with the Influenza, they gave me a carton and I thought what the heck...I'm in my 3rd trimester! LOL! Well, after a few bites I was flying to the bathroom. Apparently, the boy does NOT like yogurt period! lol. Hugs!
