22 weeks!

124 days to go!


Baby's size: At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn.
Baby's development: Her lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and she's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath her gums. Her eyes have formed, but her irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers her body and the deep wrinkles on her skin, which she'll sport until she adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside her belly, her pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.



Best of the week: Being able to feel the baby's movement from the outside of my belly!

Worst of the week: Still not sleeping through the night


Side Effects: Burping!


Cravings: None this week!


This week's goals: Get more sleep, drink more water, start cardio walking, start nesting!

Anticipating: My first shower tomorrow!

Sorry, no pics! We were slackers this week!

Baby Shower blog post coming soon!
