17 Weeks Already


We're moving right along and have reached the 17 week mark. I'm not sure if I'm imagining it or not, but I think I'm feeling a little bit of movement from the baby. We have not been keeping up quite as religiously with the pregnancy diet, but I'm doing pretty well with eating healthy. I have only gained a couple of pounds, which is probably a good thing!

Here's what our baby website says about the baby at 17 weeks:

Your baby weighs about 5 ounces now, and he's around 5 inches long — about the size of a large onion. He can move his joints, and his skeleton — until now rubbery cartilage — is starting to harden to bone. His sense of hearing is also developing. The umbilical cord, his lifeline to the placenta, is growing stronger and thicker.
