Sweet Pea: 12 Weeks
(Mary Rene is trying to play with my belly button)
Weight: 135 (holy smokes! I gained four pounds in one week!)
Signs of pregnancy: The greatest sign was hearing Sweet Pea’s heartbeat on Tuesday. Music to my ears. I’ve also been having problems with my contacts and have basically been wearing my glasses all the times. I remember having a little problem with my eyes when I was pregnant with Mary Rene but this time it is worse. I’ll need to make an appointment for the eye doctor soon. And the initial latch-on is starting to become noticeable again on the left side.
Baby Development:Sweet Pea is approximately 2 inches long and weights half an ouce. Sweet Pea is developing his/her reflexes and soon will be able to open and close his/her hands, curl the toes, and clinch his/her eyes.
Concerns/Thoughts: That the latch-on pain will continue and only get worse.

I had a lot of visual problems when I was pg with both kids. One issue was just contacts in general (my doctor said the shape of the eye changes with all the hormones and fluid). It drove me crazy! he other issues were all nuerological related. I hope your eye problems clear up soon. I cannot wear my glasses (personal thing) so I just wore the contacts the whole time.
