22 Weeks and Counting...

Baby is now the size of a...

Papaya! And here is what he is up to...

Watch what you say -- baby is now able to hear outside noise from down in the womb. Studies show that baby finds gentle music and your own voice most soothing. Nipples are starting to sprout, and that little face is fully formed. And, baby's starting to settle into sleep cycles, snoozing about 12 to 14 hours a day. It shouldn't be hard to figure out when -- just pay attention to those kicks as they start and stop.
Speaking of those kicks - when he is up I sure can feel him moving around! We had an unplanned trip to the Dr. today - I was having pain on my left side to the point of not being able to stand up. Jason met me at the Dr's office and it turns out it is what they call round ligament pain and there is not much you can do about it. Of course my mind was spinning at what in the world could be wrong. Baby's heartbeat was good and I have felt him moving around today so no worries - just pain that I have to put up with! Jason is going to put a play list together this weekend so we can play music for the little one. Oh - Jason felt him kick for the first time last week which was really exciting.
