We are in our 21st week and you are 7 inches long, about the length of a large banana and you weigh almost 11 ounces. You are practicing swallowing so now I need to really pay attention to the foods I'm feeding us. Don't worry, I'll still have some ice cream! Your arms and legs are finally in proportion and the cartilage is turning to bone. I've been able to feel you move about a little more each day, and even Daddy can feel you once in awhile now.
I had a monthly check-up yesterday morning and everything is coming along great. The doc told me at this point I need to be gaining about a pound a week until delivery. By my calculations, at delivery I should weigh about the same as I did when I first found out I was pregnant! Not many women can say that! Daddy was along as well and he heard your heartbeat for the first time. I'm glad he got to hear it!
