Well, we registered this weekend! (at Target and Babies R Us) I must admit, I’ve been excited about registering for a while now. I’ve been busy reading baby registry advice, looking up product reviews, and asking moms I know what they thought I would need. I had my list all ready of items I’d decided [...]
Week 26

At 26 weeks, I’m really feeling pregnant. I’m walking slower. Having a hard time sleeping. And fitting into those maternity clothes that seemed enormous when I bought them a month or two ago. It really felt like I grew overnight into a huge pregnant woman–though being as I have three months to go I’m sure [...]

We got another peek at our little girl today! The ultrasound revealed a squirmy 2 lb. 1 oz. little girl with long limbs. She’s right on schedule, and this time we got all the pictures that the doctor needs to see to make sure she’s doing okay. It was fun to watch her move all [...]

At 25 weeks, the baby would have a fairly good chance of surviving if she were born now. Her lungs have started producing the “surfactant” that they need to mature. She’s on her way!
And speaking of being born, she’s getting ready for that now. According to BabyGaga.com, this is the week when the baby starts [...]
Active Mornings

According to Wikipedia:
Fetuses aged 14 to 18 weeks show a pronounced circadian rhythm in their activity level, which can be detected both by fetal electrocardiogram and by measuring locomotor activity. Active and quiet periods for the fetus do not correspond to those of the mother; fetuses are most active from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. [...]

According to one description of 24 weeks I read, the baby will likely be 2 pounds and 14 inches crown to heel by the end of 24 weeks. It’s hard to believe my little girl is that big!
She moves around quite a bit, but I’m the only one who can feel her so far. C. [...]

Here’s me hanging out at home in workout pants and a too small t-shirt at 23 weeks 4 days. I’m actually starting to look a little bigger these days.
Week 23

Our little girl is likely about 11 inches long at this point. Some other possible development milestones for her at this point:
Eyebrows and eyelashes forming
Lips becoming more distinct
Bones of the middle ear hardening
Speaking of our baby’s ears, I learned on Pregnancy.org that unborn babies have an easier time hearing lower tones. In line with that, [...]
