Thought it would be cool to update you guys on the developement of our miracle. =) Enjoy!
Our pregnancy: 20 weeks
See the big picture
How Our baby's growing:
Our baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. She/He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against her/his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of her/his head to her/his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, she/he's measured from head to toe.)
She/He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. She/He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in her/his bowels, and you'll see it in her/his first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
