22 weeks as of today. I go back to the doctor again tomorrow so just pray everything checks out normal again this week. Kinley wants to go along so she can get a sucker but I told her they don't give out suckers at mommy's doctor & she will have much more fun with Grammy. I think we are going to take her around 28 or 30 weeks for the 3D sonogram we will have done so she can see her little brother.
At 11 inches & almost 1 pound, your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn.
About the size of a spaghetti squash
His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums.
His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment.
If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in.
The surface of your baby's brain, which has previously been smooth, begins to develop folds. This creation of hills and valleys in the brain will continue until the 34th week of pregnancy, when your baby's brain will have enough surface area for a full complement of brain cells.
