Pregnancy

8 Weeks

An embedded mass of cells in two parts: the placenta and the body itself.



What you can expect at this month’s checkup: You can expect your doctor to check the following, though there may be variations depending upon your particular needs and your doctor’s style of practice:

  • Weight and blood pressure
  • Urine, for sugar and protein
  • Hands and feets for sweelling and legs for varicose vains
  • Symptoms you have experiencing, especially unusual ones
  • Questions or problems you want to discuss (have a list ready)

    Ultrasound:

    A growing uterus and fetus are both shown here in Sol's Scan. She was really excited to see our baby develop.

    What you may be feeling: You may experience all these symptoms at one time or another or only one or two. Don’t be surprised if you don’t feel pregnant yet, its a matter of time.

    Parenting News: Bratz

    My girls have a couple of the bratz dolls. I see no big deal about them at all. I know my girls do not dress like them. Most of the young girls I see around the area who play with these dolls do not dress that way either. I guess if the kids are brought up to understand that it is just a doll it makes a difference.
