Best moment this week? Seeing my little one today at the doctor's office! When I told her I fell 2 1/2 weeks ago, she said she would reassure me everything is fine by showing me on the ultrasound... and she was right! I didn't get great pictures this time but loved seeing him on the screen. I think he was waving to me :)
Movement?: No, not yet... I can't wait to feel something

What I'm looking forward to: Going back home this weekend with Albert to see family and friends! Not sure if I'm excited for my 10 year class reunion or not...
Milestone: 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.
No, I don't know the sex yet. The doctor tried looking today but couldn't tell. Maybe you will be able to tell!!
