21 Weeks (September 14 - 20)

I am definitely getting bigger. There are times that my belly gets really tight, which usually happens when I eat too much. On my last appointment, the doctor said everything is fine with the baby but I just find it weird that he's not really moving as much as my first 2 did. I am honestly still in a bit of shock because I didn't get a clue it was going to be another boy except the fact that I already got 2 boys and I guess the fact that when I'm in a crowd of toddlers, the little girls usually pay more attention to me than the boys. I know that's an old wive's tale but unless something was wrong with that machine, I can't really prove it, can I? Of course the u/s tech told us that there is no mistake that I have a baby boy in my belly. I feel so different this time even with my choice of colors, which usually is another big sign that I was waiting to happen. I guess my subconscious is just way too strong this time that things didn't work the way they used to. I'm still loving the sweets like this one. It's the crepes at IHOP that I had last week. Oh it was just so delicious. Ok this will be it for now. My boys are messing up the house.

How my baby's growing:

Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long. His eyebrows and eyelids are fully developed. And you can certainly feel him move. He's oblivious to your schedule, though, so don't be surprised if he starts working out just when you're settling down for the night. If you're having a girl, her vagina is formed now, though it will continue to develop until birth.
