Playing host to an ever-growing embryo does take a toll. Heavy fatigue is setting in, along with abdominal cramping and tender breasts. I am trying to treat myself gently. Though it's not showing yet, I'm growing a little person in there!
Baby is growing like mad, putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Though I can't feel it yet, baby is moving those little arms, legs, and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy.
