As of today, I am 17 weeks pregnant! Well, I guess it depends who you ask. My pregnancy journal says I'm 16 1/2 (based on my due date), and my facebook ticker says something else. But based on conception, I am 17 weeks! Here is where the baby is in their development~
What is happening with your baby?
His/her umbilical cord is not only lengthening but also becoming thicker and stronger for these last 23 weeks. Your baby's sense of hearing is also developing since the ears have fully formed and moved into their final position.
Your baby is also beginning to form adipose or fat tissue. This will help him/her take on a more normal appearance by filling out the fine features that he/she has. Fat is important in helping regulate the body's temperature and metabolism.
How big is your baby?
Your baby is about 6 1/2 inches long and weighs 4 ounces.
Ummmm, twice baked potato with cheese?
