Pregnancy Highlights

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 21 weeks!

Size of baby: 

your baby's the size of a pomegranate!

At 10.5 inches and about 12.7 ounces, he's big enough now that you've probably been feeling his movements

Baby Development This Week: 

As his digestive system preps for the outside world, he's manufacturing meconium -- the tarry black substance you'll find in his first dirty diaper (ew)!

.

Maternity Clothes: Still in regular clothes and using belly band for jeans. (I’ve gone up a few bra sizes)

Gender: IT’S A BOY! John Declan Leviner! He will be called Declan. Declan is of Irish origin and means full of goodness. J

Movement: He is becoming more and more active as the days go by!

Sleep: I wake up every couple of hours, so I don’t get a steady number of hours of sleep.

What I miss: I miss being able to do whatever I need to do. Sometimes I forget that I’m pregnant and it’s harder to do some tasks.

                                            

Cravings: Mostly salty foods.

Symptoms: headaches, harder to move around and lean over, RLS, leg cramps, dizziness (that’s a new one.)

Best Moment this week: I love getting to feel Declan kick more regularly. It’s an awesome feeling!
