22wks

Wow only 18 weeks left, give or take! 5 more weeks till the third trimester! I swear time has never flown so fast before, but I'm not complaining because I am anxiously awaiting to meet this little girl! I can't wait to see who she looks like, what color hair- if she has hair, she will have, what color eyes she'll have, how big or small she'll be, when she'll be born and I cannot wait to hold her! I'm very anxious to see if her and Chloie look alike.

Chloie says she know Claire will look like just like her. She is so excited for her to be here. I can't wait for them to meet each other.
I think Cory is nervous about having 3 girls in the house. He says he his ready though!

I've been extremely tired lately. The dr is going to check at my next appt to see if i am anemic. I can't stay awake and feel exhausted all the time.


She's about the size of a squash, around 11 inches and almost weighing in at about a pound.

Week Twenty-Two



* Your baby weighs close to a pound at this point!
* Your baby can now hear your conversations more clearly than before!. When you talk, read, or sing, expect her to hear you. Studies have found that newborns will suck more vigorously when read to from a book they heard frequently in utero.
* Eyelids and eyebrows are fully formed.
* He's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums.
* Fingernails have grown to the end of the fingers.
* His senses are also starting develop.
* Be prepared for all those "Why" questions coming! Your baby's brain has entered a stage of rapid growth, especially in what's called the germinal matrix. This structure deep in the middle of the brain serves as a kind of factory for brain cells and disappears shortly before birth. But the brain's amazing expansion program continues until around the five birthday.
* With some help from mom, baby's liver is starting to break down bilirubin, a substance produced by red blood cells.
* If your baby is male his testes begin their descent to the scrotum.
* Primitive sperm have formed and he is producing testosterone.
* Length is around 10.94 inches (27.8cm); weight is nearly 1 pound (430gm).

Baby Chesser is currently the length of a carrot -- weighs about 3/4 of a pound. (Length: 10 1/2 inches, head to heel.)

Baby at 21wks

*your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now
* White blood cells are under production. Leukocytes (or white blood cells) form our body's defense sytems. They help fight infections and diseases.
* Rapid eye movements begin at twenty-one weeks (a key component to any healthy baby’s sleep schedule)
* Baby can hear when you talk or sing to them now.
* Your little one's skin has changed from translucent to become more opaque.
* Your infant's tongue is fully formed. If you were able to peek you might catch your son or daughter practicing giving you a raspberry!
* Baby swallows more this week. After your baby takes in amniotic fluid, his body absorbs the water in the liquid and moves the rest into the large bowel. This is good practice for his digestive system!
* Wake and sleep periods become more consistent. Some research suggests that baby sets her internal clock to match the outside world's even before birth! Your eating and sleeping habits as well levels of light and noise serve as her signals.
* Length is now measured crown to heel.
* Baby measures about 10.51 inches (26.7cm) and weighs nearly 12.7 ounces (360g).
