Week 8 of Your Pregnancy

>>Another update from Parenting Weekly..

Your Pregnant Body

Feeling a little off
Hernee, you might be feeling a little off now as your body begins adjusting to your baby growing inside of you. Your uterus is about the size of an orange now and your waistline is expanding, even though you are probably the only one who can really tell. Your breasts may also feel heavier and too large for your bra. You can expect to increase your bust size by a full cup (or two!) over the course of your pregnancy. Other women who are in the same stage of pregnancy as you are a great resource for information, friendship...and commiseration! Visit PregnancyWeekly's message boards and meet women who are due the same month you!

Your Baby
A very busy developmental stageAn ultrasound done at this stage will show your baby's fluttering heartbeat. Your baby is between 0.56 and 0.8 inches from crown to rump or about the size of a grape. Its liver is churning out large amounts of red blood cells, and will continue to until bone marrow forms and takes over this function. Week eight marks the beginning of a very busy developmental stage: your baby's face continues to change as the ears, eyes and the tip of the nose appear; the intestines start to form in the umbilical cord; and its teeth begin to develop under the gums.

Is Caffeine OK While You're Pregnant?

6:25 PM 0 Comments A+ a-

Received pregnancy tips from Parenting Weekly.. Enjoy reading!
Hi Hernee,You should avoid drinking large amounts of caffeinated beverages while you are pregnant. While there is no solid proof, strong evidence suggests that large daily doses of caffeine during pregnancy may increase the occurrence of miscarriage, preterm delivery and low birth weight. Instead of your morning latte, try the following decaffeinated beverages:

>>Herbal tea (i don't like!)
>>Decaffeinated coffee (i don't like any type of coffee)
>>A mug of warm, low-fat or fat-free milk (i like!)
>>Sparkling mineral water (i like!)

Your Pregnancy: Week 8

Your growing baby is six weeks old, thanks to the fuzzy math of pregnancy. This fuzzy math is also responsible for the widely believed notion that pregnancy is only nine months long, when in actuality it's closer to 10. Who comes up with this stuff? Obviously a man.Wondering what's up with your body, your baby and your life this week? Read on...

What You're Thinking: "If I have to smell my coworker's tuna salad sandwich for one more second, I am going to lose my cookies. Wait, did someone say cookies?"

Your Body

You know you need to take your prenatal vitamins in order to assure proper growth and nutrition for your little one, yet every time you swallow the thing, it comes right back up thanks to your woozy stomach. Don't panic:First, try popping prenatal vitamins at night or with food. Having something in your stomach to help absorb those horse pills can sometimes help. Iron is important, but it's also a common cause of nausea. Ask your doc about a vitamin with less iron, or try a liquid or chewable form that might help with the queasiness. If you're still barfing after that, check and see if your obstetrician can prescribe you a vitamin that is specifically formulated for women with severe nausea.

Your Baby

This week, your little tadpole is starting to look a little bit more human. Other exciting developments include:Your baby's eyelids, ears, upper lip and the tip of his soon-to-be adorable button nose are forming. Junior will also sprout webbed fingers and toes this week—which you'll be well aware of in a few months, as baby starts early gymnastics classes inside you.Baby's tiny heart has separated into four distinct chambers and is really ticking now—at a rate of 150 beats per minute. That's more than twice your resting heart rate (even when Brad Pitt is on the screen). Your baby is now a little more than ½ inch long, about the size of the rock in Eva Longoria's engagement ring, and is about as heavy as the check Tony Parker wrote to pay for it.

Your Life

Start to think about lining up the medical professionals that are going to help you through this experience: your gynecologist or OB, doula, midwife or lay midwife. This is one of the most important decisions you'll make, so do your research and take your time interviewing.While you're seeking professional help, why not consider finding a prenatal yoga or fitness class, or a nutrition class that specializes in prenatal noshing. Schedule a prenatal massage or a facial now. If you love it, consider buying a package deal. You can often get a discount when you book several at once—and then use them up throughout your pregnancy.

Seed mengingatkan saya tentang pemakanan.. katanya dia x nak apa yang terjadi pada dia sebelum nie dirasai orang lain..kiranya dia bagi saya petua2 berguna yang boleh saya amalkan.. antaranya..

.: Jangan makan benda2 sejuk.. dia bagi 1 contoh.. jangan makan ice-cream..
>>> OMG.. tadi lunch hour saya balik ke rumah.. saya pun x sangka yang suami saya belikan saya ice-cream kacang ( my favourite is ice-cream traffic light~nestle) selepas balik dari masjid.. saya pun ngapp je la..hehehe~ mintak2 xde apa2 masalah..

.: Jangan makan halia..or black pepper.. nenas..
>>> setakat nie saya bukan penggemar halia..hehehe~


Tapi dia kata,. terpulang lah pada saya.. perut kita lain2 ragamnya.. walau macamana pun saya tetap kena dengar nasihat kawan2..

Alhamdulillah setakat nie saya x mengalami "morning sickness" yang teruk macam yang di alami wanita hamil lain.. saya xtau la kalau turn saya lambat sikit atau x merasa terus..mintak2 dijauhkan yang teruk.. cuma masa minggu pertama dan kedua je saya ada rasa pening2, sakit perut macam nak datang bulan n sometimes rasa loya2.. sekarang syukur Alhamdulillah kurang la masalah tu semua.. kalau bercerita bab makan.. memang ada saja yang saya nak makan..
Masa seminggu di rumah mertua di Senggarang, suami saya introduce pada saya Warung Sup kawan dia di kampung.. for the first time datang..suami saya order sup gear box (kambing) fuhhhh..memang sedap.. buat masa ni saya x pernah jumpe sup sesedap tu.. saya xtau lah kalau masa nie saya dah mula mengidam.. belum sempat balik saya dah pesan suami saya suruh bawak saya semula ke sini before kami balik ke Gelang Patah..
As promised.. one day before balik dia bawak juga saya ke sana semula..hehehe~ bahagia betul saya rasa masa tu.. ade lagi yang saya idamkan.. kebetulan 2nd Anni kami pada hari kami nak balik ke GP.. awal2 saya dah plan nak ajak suami ke Kenny Roger's.. tekak saya terasa nak makan ayam kat sana.. yumm..yumm.. cam biasa lah dia setia melayan kerenah saya ni.. sampai sekarang ni saya masih lagi mudah rasa terliur dengan makanan2 yang saya tengok..hidu atau pun teringat..
Walau macamane pun saya tetap ingat pesan mak saya semalam..
"Ko jangan ikutkan sangat tekak tu Long.. nanti kena darah tinggi baru ko tau"
suami saya yang terdengar menokok tambah..
"Biarkan je dia dulu mak.. nanti tau la dia"
saya diamkan diri n teruskan makan.. hehehe~ saya tau diorang semua sayangkan saya.. insya'Allah saya akan cuba control pemakanan saya..
peace!

Week 7

Your Pregnancy: Week 7
If you're one of the "lucky" pregnant women to experience morning sickness (a poorly named symptom of pregnancy as it can strike at any time of the day), remember that it won't last forever. Most of the wooziness tapers off by the second trimester. Of course, mental wooziness can affect you throughout your pregnancy, as you think of your growing to-do list, or wonder about how you're life will change, or worry if you'll know how to handle it all. Luckily, the cure for that wooziness is laying your eyes on your new baby.Wondering what's up with your body, your baby and your life this week? Read on ...
What You're Thinking:

"How can I feel like I'm hung over all day long when I've had nothing to drink in three weeks?"
Your Body
You're supposed to be "eating for two" but instead, it's hard for you to swallow water. As a result, you're "praying to the porcelain god for two." Morning sickness can leave a pregnant chick exhausted, weak and wondering what on earth she got herself into. Don't throw in the towel just yet, here's how to cope:There are a whole bunch of tricks that pregnant women swear help to reduce nausea caused by morning sickness ... such as sucking on lemon drops or any other hard candy.Sometimes certain foods can help relieve the symptoms of morning sickness. Also, blaming your partner for everything has been known to comfort many women in the throes of nausea. Even if you're experiencing frequent vomiting, try not to worry, as your baby needs very little nourishment this early in the pregnancy. Good thing, since all you've eaten today is two boxes of saltines.If you're noticing weight loss or dehydration, you could have hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of morning sickness that occurs very infrequently. Check with your doctor.
Your Baby
This week your baby's brain is growing at a mind-boggling 100 cells per minute within a see-through skull. If you could peer inside, you'd see those tiny brain cells growing and growing and growing (about as quickly as you feel like yours are shrinking and shrinking and shrinking with your "pregnancy brain"!). More high points include: Your baby's face is becoming more defined this week. A tiny mouth hole (which will be ready to wail before you know it!), tongue, nostrils and ear indentations are visible. His or her eyes are wide open, but he doesn't have irises (the colored part) yet. Baby's arm buds are growing. At this point they look more like microscopic ping-pong paddles than arms. Baby's leg buds are also forming and will look like tiny paddles by the end of the week.The umbilical cord—the connection between your baby and the placenta—is now visible.Your baby is now between 1/3 and 1/4 inch long—about the length of a Tic Tac and about as heavy as an eyelash. While that sounds tiny, he or she is approximately 10,000 times bigger than at conception. Crazy, huh?Your LifeKeeping the cat in the bag for the next five weeks will be tough. But the relief of finally telling your coworkers that you're pregnant—and not gaining weight at an astounding rate—will be a total relief. Begin to form a plan on how to tell your boss you're pregnant. (Hint: Tell your supervisor before you tell the office gossip!)Talk to human resources so you can be sure of your benefits and legal rights as a pregnant employee.Entertain in your home while the living room is still free of baby toys. If you're too zonked to cook, make it a potluck!Take a moment to appreciate your clean upholstery. With years of parenting ahead, you might never see it this pristine again.
Buy It:
Pretty puke prevention.
Eat It:
Ginger is nature's secret weapon against nausea, but gnawing on a piece of it isn't tasty. Luckily, tossing it in pancakes is. By the way, when you're pregnant, it's perfectly acceptable to eat pancakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
