Week 22

This week is the last week of month 5! My uterus will be growing about 2cm above my belly button this week and I've noticed my belly button has been quite shallow for weeks. I've been starting to feel kicks from the outside but Greg is never quick enough to catch them. According to the baby books, miss Lillian can taste the things I'm eating. They suggest if I want her to like certain items then I should eat those while I'm pregnant. I'm not sure how accurate that is but it is interesting to consider.

According to babycenter.com, Lillian is developing this week by:


How your baby's growing:

At 11 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
