Weekly Update - 22 Weeks

from babycenter.com

How your baby's growing: At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. Her lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and she's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath her gums. Her eyes have formed, but her irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers her body and the deep wrinkles on her skin, which she'll sport until she adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside her belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.

How am I feeling?: My butt pain has been a little better the last few days. But come night time the sides of my stomach are ready to be given a break. Otherwise I'm doing alright. Moya moves a lot, mostly when I'm leaning back or lying down. She moves differently then Belle did at this point. Belle would do big rolling movements, Moya punches, kicks, and boogies.
