25 Weeks

• Baby now weighs 1.5 pounds and is 13.5 inches long.


• Swelling has started in...my wedding ring barely gets on and off


• Baby's hands are now fully developed and he can feel the sensation of touch


• His arms and legs have grown almost to the size they will be at birth


• Baby's capillaries, the teeniest blood vessels, are now forming in your baby's blood giving his skin a pink glow


• The structures of his spine are now made up of 150 joints, 33 rings, and some 1,000 ligaments...sounds complicated!


• Next doctor's appt is December 20th for my glucose screening test to check for gestational diabetes


• Enjoy the belly pic!
