Week 14

We are officially in the second trimester! Still have morning sickness all day, but that's ok because it's so worth it. I've also been feeling my ab muscles and ribs starting to ache a little from the stretching and growing. It's pretty cool to think that our baby is just hanging out inside and some days it seems so unreal!

Here is what our baby is doing during this week:
By this week, some fine hairs have developed on your baby’s face. This soft colorless hair is called lanugo, and it will eventually cover most of your baby’s body until it is shed just before delivery. By now, your baby’s genitals have fully developed, though they may still be difficult to detect on an ultrasound examination. In addition, your baby starts to produce thyroid hormones because the thyroid gland has matured. Your baby now weighs about 1.6 ounces (45 grams) and is about 3.5 inches (9 cm) long from crown to rump.
