Week 21

21 Weeks!

It is going by way too fast, I have so much to do and so little time to do it!  Due to moving and lack of cooperating schedules, no pic this week :(

According to my readings, Baby Boy Kirby should be about 13 oz.  But he weighed that our US last week, so he may be a bit bigger now!  Not much change in length, around 7-8 inches head to butt and nearly 11 inches head to toe.

He is as long as a Carrot:

As tall as a Bottle of Coke:

As big as a Pomegranate:

As big as a Cantaloupe:

Baby Boy Kirby's Week:

• He now has fully formed eyebrows and eyelids, meaning he is now blinking!

• Rapid Eye Movement is now occurring when he sleeps, which means he can dream!

• He is starting to form meconium (his first poop).

• This little guy now looks like a miniature version of what he will look like at birth...so cool!

My Week:

• Not a whole lot going on related to the pregnancy.  Still a lot of bathroom breaks, and some slight nausea when I'm at work all night. 

• Starting to have a little discomfort in my hips after being on my feet for 12 hours at work, but nothing that is unbearable!

• Main thing that is on my mind:  Getting this move over with!  Packing, home projects, and a messy house are making me feel a little stir crazy.  I'm ready for the house to get on the market and get sold!!

• Another goal - pick a name!  I know we have quite a while before we have to decide on a name, but I want to be able to call him something besides Baby Boy....
