A Dried Plum (OK, OK, it's a Prune!)


In an effort to make people want to eat them, the makers of prunes got together and decided that in order to change the image of prunes they should change the name, thus we now have a dried plum! But honestly, who are they kidding? It's a damn prune, and while the name may not inspire you to run out and grab a bag (unless you are pregnant and very constipated) it is what it is. You know, a rose by any other name and all that jazz.


Anyway on to the little prune in question:...


With bones and cartilage starting to form and vital organs beginning to function, baby is making major progress. Body length will almost double in the next three weeks, and arm joints are now working. (Soon, legs will too.)


How far along? 10 weeks!


Weight Loss/Gain? I'm down 3 pounds.


Maternity Clothes? Nope


Stretch Marks? No new ones to report fortunately.


Sleep? And then some!


Best moment this week? There have been moments that I haven't felt nauseated, those were pretty good.


Food cravings? Anything salty


Gender: Honestly, I just don't know!


Labor signs? Thankfully, no.


Belly button, in or out? In


What I miss? Sushi, I would really like some please.


What am I looking forward to? We get to see the baby tomorrow!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!


Weekly wisdom? It's OK to feel scared as long as long as the good thoughts outnumber the bad.


Milestones: The baby has passed the stage when it is most susceptible to damage. The danger zone for congenital abnormalities has passed.
