21 weeks down, 19 to go!

So this week Little Lady Lima is about the size of a banana. That doesn't really make sense to me because the cantaloupe last week sure looked bigger! 

Regardless, she is growing in weight (not quite a pound yet!) and length and I am feeling her kicks all day long! 

Here is the fruit shot: 


So what else is happening with our baby? 
  • Eyebrows have developed!
  • Her senses are developing, especially her sense of touch. She can feel her face and stroke her arms and legs! Just wait until Papa Bean introduces her to back scratching and Momma Bean introduces her to massage at our mother/daughter spa day!
  • And this is interesting: Studies show that after birth, babies are most interested in tastes they've already experienced through amniotic fluid! That means that you should think about what you want your future child to eat as you prepare your own meals... I guess our little girl will love chocolate, ice cream and pizza. :-)
