Week 19! IT'S A BOY!

Posted by Unknown at 07:10
Wow! 19 weeks already! I am almost halfway there! And if you can't already tell by the title, I found out that I am having a little boy! My baby boy's name is Damian Wayne and is due on December 1st, 2013. He was so good, just sat there with his little legs crossed. I saw his little feet and his side profile briefly. But I get to see him again in a few weeks for his anatomy scan. Need to see how well he is growing!

Damian's sensory development is going crazy! His brain is designating specialized areas for smell, touch, taste and hearing. His hearing is so developed that he can hear my voice and the voices of those closest to me. I constantly sing and talk to him and tell him how much I love him already. 

He is still tiny! Only weighs 8.5oz and measures 6 inches from his head to his little bum. He is also starting to work on his very first poop! As he swallows amniotic fluid he will start digesting it and meconium is starting to form. Which is what makes up the black tar like poop, the first dirty diaper in a long, long line of dirty diapers! 

He is busy doing somersaults, kicking and stretching. Even playing and grabbing the umbilical cord! Silly boy. 

Well I hope you all have had a great weekend! This has been an amazing weekend for me. Stay cool and hydrated in the heat!
Come back next week for Week 20! Almost halfway there!
