Dear Lima Bean, Week 9

Hi, sweetie. You've got most of your body parts in place now, and your wrists, ankles, fingers and toes are formed. You're starting to really look like a baby, and you're the size of an olive (about .9 inches).

Tomorrow is likely the last day of the injections and pills, and I'm a little nervous about it. But I think you'll be just fine - stay nice and strong, and keep growing. I've been trying to eat a nice balance of foods for you.

The nausea hasn't been too bad while we've been on vacation - I think the fresh air really helped. (But the smoke from the firepit and from the fireworks didn't.) The key seems to be eating steadily, but never too much.

But you are worth any amount of nausea. Keep growing, and keep soaking up our love.
