We had our 24 week appointment this past Friday and it was great. We got to see the baby again and this time he/she was nice enough to show his/her face. The baby has very long toes and a tiny little nose. The Dr. was able to see the heart better this time around and things look great. The baby's brain is developing as it should along with everything else.
The 1st picture is the forearm and hand, the 2nd picture is the calf and foot, the 3rd picture is the baby look toward us, to the right is the forehead, two eyes, nose and mouth. Just below the head to the bottom right is a hand and to the the bottom left is the rib cage. The 4th picture is a side view of the baby..the head is to the right...you can see the forehead, eye, little nose and lips..even the little chin :o) I think the really amazing thing is that at 6 months the baby will look exactly the same when it is born...just a bigger version. I keep looking at the side profile picture and thinking that is my baby's face...that sweet face is the one I will see in about 3 months...how crazy is that?!?
Today starts my 25th week. It is hard to believe that my uterus is the size of a soccer ball! I haven't had any weight gain yet, but I am having a little swelling in my ankles and toes...I am supposed to stay away from salt, it is now my enemy.
