Week 22

It's been a growing week. I feel more pregnant than ever. It's hard to believe that I still have 4 more months of being pregnant and the continuous growing that I will do. Here is a 22 Week Belly Shot:

Week 22

And as for a development update, our little girl will now be the size of a papaya for the next couple of weeks.

 I  get weekly updates from a few websites that I have signed up and I received this photo today from one of the websites. I looked at it and found it hard to believe that this little munchkin could look this big already in my belly. I guess her movements are indicating that she is growing as they are more pronounces and frequent. Enjoy!

 At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
