Each week, Kayu and I receive weekly updates about the growth of our baby. This week was our 18 week update.
Head to rump, your baby is approximately 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and 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. If you're having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If you're having a boy, his genitals are noticeable now, although he may hide them from you during an ultrasound.
P.S. Each week the email alternates between using he and she.
My Uncle Tim and Aunt Jackie came into town this weekend to celebrate Easter with me so I wouldn't be all by myself...so sweet! Unfortunely I had to go on alert Easter Sunday but when I got back on Monday, we filled the day with shopping, playing Wii, and eating a delicious "Easter" dinner that included salmon, fresh green beans, and mashed potatoes. The best part of the evening was watching Aunt Jackie and Uncle Tim play Wii tennis. I'm sure as you could picture...AJ was very dramatic with her swings while UT would hit the ball with the flick of the wrist.
