Week 22! 18 weeks to go and time seems to be going fairly quickly now. I feel like every time I turn around it's a new week and I am that much closer to my due date.
My little man sure does like to move. I started feeling him move in the evenings after dinner but now his movements are becoming much more consistent.
Damian is now roughly 11 inches long from head to foot and weighs roughly 1 full pound. That's about the same as a spaghetti squash. His eyelids, lips, and eyebrows are becoming more and more distinct. He is even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. By now his eyes are fully formed, though the irises (coloured part of the eye) still lacks pigment.
His little body is still covered in tiny, fine hairs (lanugo). These little hairs are all over, in his wrinkly skin. He will have wrinkly skin until he starts packing on some adorable baby fat.
Inside his little belly his pancreas- essential for producing important hormones- is developing steadily.
Well that's it for today! Hope you all had a great weekend, I will see you next week!
