Mom sprung a leak! Those thick, yellow drips (called colostrum), are the precursor to breast milk. Try a pair of cotton breast pads and make sure to change them whenever they get damp to avoid the dreaded chafe. Still milk-free? That's normal too -- some women just don't leak.
So you and Mom come to visit me in Napa for a 3-day weekend. Napa was so pretty and the weather turned out to me so nice. You and Mom were such great troopers. We were up for breakfast each morning by 7:30 and off to wine taste by 10am. (Mom sipped carefully). The funny thing was your Mom was wanting to sample cupcakes one day and was googling cupcake places in Napa BUT we had one more winery to go to first. Your Mom clearly stated..."I just want a damn cupcake". It was the tag line for the day. :) Not only did we find her A cupcake BUT 5 cupcakes!!! We all tried them and the raspberry cheesecake got thumbs up from us all.

Baby Thompson is a Little Blueberry this week!
At seven weeks, you’re probably gearing up for your first prenatal visit with your OB, and you’re probably dying to know what to expect. Brace yourself to give a variety of samples (blood, urine and cervical cells -- yeesh!), get an ultrasound test that will confirm baby’s doing okay in there and get an estimated due date (yep, you might already have one, but the doc may adjust it a bit based on what she sees). It probably seems weird to go about your day knowing you’re pregnant, when no one else can see it. Not to mention, wondering what it will be like when everyone else can see it. Caught yourself staring at your tummy in the mirror -- and even pushing it out to fake a baby bump, just to get a preview? Yeah, we did that too during week seven.
your baby's the size of a blueberry!
Your .51-inch embryo doesn't exactly tip the scales just yet but she's developing like crazy. She's already doubled in size since last week.
