I am 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant! I've decided it's time to change the titles of my posts after having our first ultrasound and seeing our baby today! There is only one little baby in there which is just fine by us :) I am going to do weekly (possibly more than weekly) updates about our pregnancy journey. So far I've been tired a lot, some food cravings or I guess not wanting certain foods more than anything, and my boobs are really sore!
Your
embryo (looking kind of like a tadpole) is starting to form major organs (heart, kidney, liver, stomach) and systems (nervous, circulatory, digestive). Baby's presence in your
uterus triggers production of
hCG (the hormone detected by
pregnancy tests)... which triggers production of other
hormones like estrogen and progesterone... which trigger all those great
symptoms you've probably been noticing!
