18 Weeks Pregnant
Update from BabyCenter.com:"Head to rump, your baby is about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and he weighs almost 7 ounces. He's busy flexing his arms and legs — movements that you'll start noticing more and more in the weeks ahead. His blood vessels are visible through his thin skin, and his ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from his head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around his nerves, a process that will continue for a year after he's born."
And speaking of spicey bell peppers:
1. This baby boy has got some spice in his life because he is constantly dancin' up a storm in my belly! I can feel him moving to some beat inside of his head. Last night during praise and worship he was going crazy! We got us a little Jesus Lover Baby!
2. I felt the heat today when my school had no power. My classroom was 96. I overheated and threw up three times. I felt dizzy and got an instant lightning headache. They sent me home to rest and eat popsicles. I am feeling better now but BOY was that not fun! Why must I toss my cookies so much?
Next week we get another ultrasound to check on his heart, spine, brain, and other important things. I have faith that God has got it all taken care of and this little boy is A-OKAY!
