Size of baby: According to babycenter.com the baby is about the size of a turnip.
Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +7 pounds
Maternity Clothes: i did a TON of maternity shopping over the weekend. I bought mostly bottoms because the majority of my tops are still wearable.
Gender: BOY
Movement: I believe there is definitely some movement happening in there now. Still hard to distinguish what's what though.
What I miss: nothing.
Sleep: This week has been better although I am still taking the occational nap after work.
Symptoms: pulling and stretching feels in my lower abdomen and bloody noses. if i get up too fast off the couch it hurts like hell.
Cravings: still salads and more sweets this week that in the past.
Best Moment this week: Ordering the baby's furniture this week and getting normal results back on the quad blood scan.
What I am looking forward to: our anatomy scan in a couple weeks. i want to finally be able to breathe a sigh of relief that everything is going to turn out fine.
