Week 18

According to the weekly update e-mail I get, the baby's fingerprints are now fully formed and if the baby is a girl: "she will have the tiny follicles that hold all the eggs she will have for her life - up to 6 million - holding on to them until puberty when she begins the process of ovulation herself." I find this absolutely incredible.

What I also find incredible is how I am still able to hide my pregnancy from work. Yes, I've popped out somewhat but I am still wearing all the same clothes and can hide under big sweaters and baggier winter clothing. It looks like I just have a couple of extra winter kilo's/pounds. This run won't last for too much longer. I'm looking forward to buying some maternity clothes on my upcoming trip back to the US (16 July through 29 July).

I'll try to post a pic this week...but I think I might still just look fat instead of pregnant!
