Well, we have made it to being 17 weeks pregnant! Yay! I had my 4 month check up last Wednesday and we listened to the heart beat. Everything sounded good. The doctor said today based off the heart beat, it was a boy. We find out what it will be on February 2, so cast your vote if you haven't already!
Anyways, on to bones and turnips. Babycenter.com sent me the latest update on what is developing now. It reads... "How your baby's growing: Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop."
Hooray for bones and hooray for weighing as much as a turnip! Keep growing stong little Peanut!
