It's crazy to think that so much can happen over the course of a week. The slight weight gain and looking pregnant is pretty crazy. I love reading the fruit analogy online to see the size of the baby each week.
According to thebump.com (http://pregnant.thebump.com/pregnancy/second-trimester/articles/your-pregnancy-week-21.aspx), the following information is now true about Baby Silverman:
Baby's now the size of a banana!
Baby's digestive system is busy creating meconium (a tarry black substance made of swallowed amniotic fluid, digestive secretion, and dead cells), which will fill the first diaper after birth. And, if baby is a girl, her womb is now stocked up with her lifetime supply of six million eggs (the number will drop to around one million by birth).
I've also seen this weekly questionnaire on other baby blogs....I'll update it every week so you can know how we're doing!
How far along? 21 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 10ish
Sleep: Pretty good. I am def beginning to feel more tired lately though.
Best moment this week: Finding great stuff on Craigslist for the Baby. It's amazing to get gently used things for such a great deal :)
Movement: Some flutters - mostly in the evenings.
Food cravings: Pickles and also Ice Cream (separately of course)
Gender: Hoping to find out in the next week!
Belly Button in or out?: Def still in.
What I miss: Pepsi & Turkey Sandwiches.
What I am looking forward to: We have a Nurse Educator appointment this Thursday. Hopefully we'll get some good information.
Weekly Wisdom: The 'Be Band' from Target makes clothes "fit" a lot longer.
Milestones: Got furniture for the nursery and a highchair!
