Your baby weighs about as much as a large mango -- just over a pound. Length: more than 11 inches. (Source: babycenter.com)
Yesterday we had our regular doctor's appointment. Everything is right where it should be for measurements and Dr. M. confirmed that the ultrasound figures all looked good too. He said he doesn't look at the gender so that he doesn't accidentally let it slip if a couple wants to be surprised. But he did say that if the Tech says it's a girl, then it's a girl! With today's technology, it'd be hard to not get it right I think. But I'm still keeping Cade's old clothes just in case.
I've been trying to keep big brother mindful of the fact that his sister is in mommy's belly. It's funny watching him come in to give me a hug and his head bouncing off my belly. He still hasn't felt her kick but we talk about her a lot. It should be soon for the boys to feel her kick. Some days she feels like she's doing complete somersaults in there. Enjoy the room while you have it little one!
When I was pregnant with Cade, I craved crispy chicken strips and plain M&M candies. This time around I'm craving hamburgers from the airport cafe and gummy bears (especially from Trader Joe's). Ross was in Redding last weekend and went to get me some gummy bears. Can you believe it? Trader Joe's was completely out! So he picked up a variety of other brands to hold me over. What a good husband.
The secret is out at the Library and it's so nice not having to try to hide my bump. People at church are also starting to look at me questioningly but I'm happy telling everyone there. Thanks to my friend Courtney, I have lots of cute maternity clothes options and it's been fun letting little girl start to pop out.
