Your baby weighs 5 ounces now, and he's around 5 inches long. He can move his joints, and his skeleton — until now rubbery cartilage — is starting to harden to bone. His sense of hearing is also developing. The umbilical cord, his lifeline to the placenta, is growing stronger and thicker.'
This is day number 121 and Im 17 weeks pregnant! I have 159 days or 22 weeks left, and am 43.2% of the way there.
its amazing really. theres this little person in my tummy and i dont even feel pregnant. sometimes i get a tight feeling low in my stomach but nothing major. i spose when it hits me it'll all happen so fast. the 18 week information says 'maternity clothing is a must'.... really? by saturday?! hehe... i dunno. if i was thinner you might be able to see it more. in 2 weeks 5 days ill be halfway and expected to gain around 1lb per week from then on.
i havnt weighed myself like i was gonna. maybe i will soon. just dont think i wanna see the scale at the moment as im feeling really bloated.
im trying to get harryj on target with his daily routine. he's ok. but i want him to do things at the right times. itll be good for him. and good for me n the baby too.
i also want to get organised at home. to make it easier on us. but... that is easier said than done. i mean... where do you start?!!
ill start in the living room and hope for the best i think.
see you all soon
