So yeah, I totally skipped over Week 11. Here's a recap:
According to baby-gaga.com:
Your wee baby is now comparable in size to a plum!
Go ahead... we'll wait while you run to the kitchen and hold one in your hand to marvel at the life form unfolding inside of you.
Your baby's favorite game right now is exploring their face and especially their mouth.
Not only does this game improve your child's newly

Hello, hello!
We're going to do the week-by-week pregnancy a little different for the time being. Since Yoda is measuring a little small, I'm going to do the pregnancy weeks by LMP (last menstrual period) until Yoda catches up. If Yoda somehow measures ahead, I'll still do it by LMP.
What's Yoda's size this week?
According to baby-gaga.com:
Your astonishingly tiny baby has been growing as fast as possible, almost doubling in size

It's been a while since I've updated on the health front. Truth to be told, I've just been too exhausted to update. If I'm not sleeping, I'm trying to sleep. I can go to bed at one in the morning and wake up like it's nothing five hours later. Needless to say, I've been taking a lot of much-needed naps. In fact, I took one today. I was planning
Over the past several weeks, Maks and I have gone back and forth on whether we wanted to find out the sex of Yoda. I wanted to find out because it'll be easier for the registry. Well, registries since there's more than one. I think I'm at three now and I'm not sure if I started one at Babies R Us. Wait a minute, am I at three registries?
Today I officially start month three of pregnancy. I would be happier if I wasn't so damn nauseated all the time.
Let's check Yoda's progress!

Today marks week eight into my pregnancy! Just one more week until I actually hit three months. Sweet! Let's check out Yoda's progress:
According to baby-gaga.com:
Woohoo! You've got one whole inch of baby inside of you!
Your little embryo has finally reached the one-inch mark (30mm)!
What's more, your baby is finally starting to take on some very distinct human features. For starters, their little tail (really just the spinal cord) has

"...that stitches stuff foxxy is getting..."
It's a phrase that's been on my mind for the past half-hour or so. I'm hoping when I'm finished typing, it would be out of my mind so I can concentrate on the rest of my day. We'll get to that phrase that doesn't pay in a minute but first...
So I had my first prenatal appointment this past Tuesday. Yoda is measuring a little
When I was pregnant with Ethan, I used regular headphones to play music for him. I introduced him to Keith Sweat, Iron Maiden, Guns N' Roses, and classical music. I also had Maks speak Russian to him on a daily basis so Ethan would learn Russian and be familiar with Maks's voice. Needless to say we're going to do the same with Yoda, even though I think Yoda might
Though I have my occasional fat girl pregnant woman cravings, I do try to eat as healthy as possible. I tend to go by this book, which I highly recommend:
