How Far Along: 21 weeks along. :)
Size of baby: Baby is the length of a carrot this week, or as heavy as a pomegranate.
Part of your baby's growth spurt at this point is likely because his stomach is now equipped to start absorbing energy-boosting nutrients from the amniotic fluid he's swallowing in there. Most of your baby's nourishment is still coming directly from the placenta, though.
Sleep: Hubby is home and I'm doing much better in the sleep department. We've had a lot of 'jet lag/baby' naps, and I'm feeling more rested now. I'm so glad to have him back.
Symptoms: Lots of round ligament pain this week.
Cravings: Grilled cheese sandwiches and fruit juice.
Gender: IT'S STILL A GIRL!
Movement: Still very soft, but I feel movement at night and first thing in the morning. I love feeling her move.
Maternity Clothes: Maxi skirts and cardigans. Light ones, since it's hot hot hot.
Milestones: Confirming that baby looks healthy from the morphology scan. Very happy about that!
The belly: Feeling pretty stable in size this week.
