Welcome to Hello Bump, a podcast about what you’re not expecting when you’re expecting.

In this episode, hosts Jana Pittman and Grace Rouvray reveal your baby is around the size of a raspberry or a kidney bean! At week eight, your baby's reproductive organs are developing, although it’s still too early to determine the sex. Your uterus is now the size of a tennis ball, and this week is often the peak of morning sickness. Jana explains how much nausea is normal and also why your gums might start bleeding.
