6 Weeks and Counting!

Happy 6 Weeks!! It looks like this Night Owl is going to be hitting the sack early these days since The Bump is growing at a furious pace and boy am I feeling it!! I will be counting the weeks until the end of the first trimester when I regain my energy. All of the much needed rest is for such a good cause as this week the baby's heart has began to pump at 100 to 130 beats per minute. It's amazing to think that I have two hearts beating inside of me...and the baby's beating twice as fast as mine!! The muscle fibers are also starting to build and by the end of the week The Bump will be moving it's tiny limbs or arm buds. Blood is beginning to circulate and the tongue is forming, which I'm sure Matt and I will be all too familiar with in those sleepless nights during red faced tantrums!!
