Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 21 weeks
Size of baby: Ella Kate is the length of a carrot.
What’s developing: Ella Kate measures about 10.5 inches from head to heel and weighs about 12 ounces. Her eyebrows and eyelids are present now and her vaginal canal has begun to form.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Got on the scale yesterday and have lost 1/2 pound. Who knows, stress maybe...
Clothes: Maternity jeans and some maternity tops. Able to still fit in some of my bigger regular tops too (for now). Still in my regular scrubs pants, but have bought a few bigger tops!
Gender: It's a GIRL!!!
Movement: Definitely feeling flutters now and some of them feel like "kicks".
Sleep: Still waking up about 2 times per night to use the bathroom.
What I miss: Jersey Mikes subs
Cravings: Chocolate milk.
Symptoms: Heartburn more frequently.
Best Moment this week: Mike was discharged home on Friday after almost 12 days in the hospital. He is much more comfortable recovering at home. This has been a stressful time for us, but we will make it through it. We are blessed to have such great family and friends. On another positive note, Mike felt Ella kick this week! :-)
