19 weeks bumpdate!

Developing a protective coating over his skin, called vernix caseosa. It's greasy and white and you may see some of it at his birth.

Working on his five senses. Nerve cells for his sense of taste, hearing, sight and smell are developing in his brain.

He is about 6 1/2 inches!

Baby might start sleeping this week. Babies can find a 'favorite' position. Usually have their chin tucked into the chest. Most babies can even dream when they reach the REM stage of sleep.

 

How far along? 19 weeks 6 days 20 weeks tomorrow!

What fruit size is your baby? Mango! 



Belly in Inches: 36"

Symptoms: Back pain like, really bad back pain. I need Chris to rub my back every night. Constantly hungry. Peeing a million time a day. Lots of pressure in my lower abdomen. Pregnancy brain for reals.

 Weight gain: 130-131! Yay for weight gain! That means baby is growing!

Sleep: Sleep is getting better... I guess Other then having to pee 3 times a night :( That is starting to get old. But I constantly have to pee. And I am constantly uncomfortable. I am not looking forward to that getting worse. Every position is painful and uncomfortable.  

Best moment this week: I swear I have felt baby move. But I am waiting for the MOMENT when I just KNOW it was baby.   

Nursery updates: I got something SUPER cute for the nursery, but I will wait to take pictures until I have it up!

Food cravings:  Nothing in particular :/

Looking forward to: Tomorrow I am 20 weeks and I get my Anatomy Scan tomorrow and I am SO excited to see baby again. This ultrasound is very important and is very detailed and will tell me how baby is doing and looking!
