Today starts our 24th week. The baby is about 12.5 inches long of the size of the average ear of corn. I thought this was a very odd vegetable to compare the baby too! He/She is weighing in at 1.25 lbs. The baby's respiratory system is growing at a fast [ace, the lungs are developing and moving amniotic fluid in and out. The baby is getting it's oxygen through my placenta.
I felt my uterus move up in the last few days....it was below my belly button for such a long time and now its just above it. The baby is now swimming up and around my ribcage. He/She moves all of the time....seems to like the upper left side of my belly.
We have a OB appointment this Friday and an ultrasound. Fingers crossed we get a better look at the baby this time!
