Week 21

So this week we found out what we're having. I'll post my ultra sound pictures in a few days. We didn't get a money shot picture printed out, but we did get to see her girlie parts on the monitor!! It's a girl!! So i am now today painting the baby's room. Don't worry, lots of ventilation and i am taking breaks in between walls.

I am still having severe butt cheek pain. It really hurts and sometimes when it flares up i cannot roll over in bed. So Derek is a trooper and has to help me! We went to the Twins game this past Tuesday, where Derek felt her move for the first time. She was squrimin around something fierce so i grabbed Derek hand and he had this look on his face and then said..."Are you sure you don't have gas?" Lol! I told him i was sure. Her movements are getting alot stronger as she grows. Well, i have to get back to painting. Here is where we are at!

How your baby's growing:

Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like she's practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.
