HOW BIG IS MY BABY: crown to rump 4 to 4 1/2 inches. Gummybear weighs about 1 3/4 ounces. Is now the size of a soft ball. Aren't you a biggin'.
WHAT CHANGES ARE OCCURRING IN MY BABY: The fine hair, lanugo, covers your body. You may be sucking your thumb by now. Bones are even harder and can be seen in an Xray.
HOW BIG AM I: Gained 1 pound back from all the boneless buffalo wings I ate on vacation.
HOW AM I FEELING: Like when I was 1st pregnant, tired and peeing alot. I think the tiredness came from coming back to work and I've gotten REALLY thirsty again. I talking during a work day it is easy to drink 2 44 oz glasses of water.
HOW IS DAD FEELING: Stressed about work. Looking into new possibilites. Hopefully something will turn up. The stress just shows how much he loves us and wants to be a provider for our family. We are blessed that he has that character about him. There are babies out there who's Daddy could care less. We are blessed.
QUESTIONS FOR MY DR.: Are we going to do the blood work for the AFP testing? (Will ask at my next check up at 17 weeks and give you the answer)
THINGS TO DO THIS WEEK: Sleep!
SPECIAL THOUGHTS OR FEELINGS ABOUT THIS WEEK: I was looking in my book in weeks ahead adn in another 1 1/2 months you will go from 1.5 ounces to 12 ounces. That's so cool. Can't wait to feel you dance. But PLEASE stay off my bladder. Love you baby.
SPECIAL MEMENTOS AND MEMORIES: We have the best picture of us on vacation this year. You went to your 1st football game when you were 14 weeks 5 day in belly old. LOL We bought you a WKU mascot from the game for you to always have. I also found a piggy bank I plan to let Liz paint for you and by this journal you will know how long you have had it. We love you sweet baby and can't wait to meet you.
ADVICE FOR OTHER PREGOS: Remember to take good care of your teeth. Our horomones are going nuts and it even effects your teeth so brush 2 times and day and floss once. I'll get off my mommy soapbox now.
