So I have not posted for a few weeks, but it has been an extremely busy time!! We closed on our new home on January 31st and it was chaos from then on. I think we chose the coldest weekend to move, it couldn't have been any more miserable outside. I ended up getting a cold afterwards and we couldn't get caught up on sleep for a couple weeks. For weeks 14-16 it was about the same. I was very tired and was still getting sick about once/twice a day.
Your Baby: Week 14
Your adorable little fetus is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, and (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over the body for warmth.
Your Baby: Week 15
Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements.
Your Baby: Week 16
Watch what you say... tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean the little one can now pick up your voice. Eyebrows, lashes and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming. And, if you're interested, an ultrasound might be able to determine gender.
