Guess what? Baby Wotring's sensory development is exploding this week! His or her brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch which means the baby can hear his or her dad when he raps to my belly! Baby Wotring weighs in around 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches from head to bottom -- about the size of a large heirloom tomato. In the next few weeks Baby Wotring and I will both be growing even faster as a little growth spurt occurs.
19 week bump
On Sunday I had my first experience as the stereotypical emotional pregnant lady and cried for absolutely no reason! I sat on the couch while the husband was upstairs folding laundry and cried for a few minutes. A short while later I felt like my normal self and shook my head wondering who that crazy crying lady was from just moments before! I had another pesky headache early on in the week and then Baby Wotring challenged me with some intense heartburn mid-week. I guess the heartburn could have had something to do with the spicy chili I ate three days in a row too....
Safe to say I wasn't feeling my best this week but a few tears and some discomfort really didn't slow me down or bring me down. The husband and I are both so excited for our ultrasound in ONE WEEK to find out if Baby Wotring is a boy or girl. Every time I think about it my heart starts to race and a big smile is quickly plastered across my face!
Need more trick-or-treaters or I'm gonna eat all this candy
I forgot to weigh in this morning like I usually do on Thursdays but that's probably a good thing considering I've been hitting up the Halloween candy stash on a nightly basis. Still really digging chewy candy like those delicious Skittles above but need to cut back on my sweets because it's getting to be a daily treat which I think makes it less of a treat and more of a sugar addiction (whomp whomp). Aside from candy I can't get enough spinach, avocado and peanut butter this week.
Be back next week with our gender reveal!!!
