Well, I've made it to 16wks and 34 years of age! :-) I'm ready for a New Year and New Beginnings. 2012 already holds such joy and excitement in store for me and my family, with the birth of our newest addition joining our fam in just 5 short months. I am now in the 2ww (again!), but this time looking forward to knowing whether I have a little he or she growing in my belly. I'll know in 2 weeks! Can't wait! I've been feeling more "flutters"/baby movements the past few days, still very light but present. Looking forward to the days when I can feel my little sweetie all the time. I enjoyed a wonderful birthday dinner with my precious family tonight at Outback Steakhouse...good grub!
Here's me and my handsome men
Scooter surprised me with some of my fave Godiva chocolates and special birthday dessert at the restaurant, where they all sang "Happy Birthday" to me....Love my Family!
Me and my honey, baby included :-)
And here's what's going on with baby this week....
How your baby's growing:
Get ready for a growth spurt. In the next few weeks, your baby will double his weight and add inches to his length. Right now,
he's about the size of an avocado: 4 1/2 inches long (head to rump) and 3 1/2 ounces. His legs are much more developed, his
head is more erect than it has been, and his eyes have moved closer to the front of his head. His ears are close to their final position, too. The patterning of his scalp has begun, though his locks aren't recognizable yet. He's even started growing toenails. And there's a lot happening inside as well. For example, his heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day, and this amount will continue to increase as your baby continues to develop.
