WOW I
have made it past the half way mark of my pregnancy it is so
hard to believe! Which also means there are 18 weeks and 5 days until
Christmas!!
How Far Along -
23 Weeks
Pregnant (23 weeks 1 day)
Due Date -
December
13th, 2013
Boy or Girl -
Unknown
Bump Picture - will post later
Baby Development -
Baby
weighs about 1 pound and measures 11 inches now. With baby's sense of movement well developed by now, baby can feel when you dance. Now you should be able to see baby squirm underneath your clothes. Blood vessels in the baby's lungs are developing to prepare for breathing, and the sounds that your baby's increasingly keen ears pick up are preparing it for entry into the outside world. Loud noises that become familiar now like the dog barking or the vacuum cleaner probably won't faze baby when it hears them outside the womb.
Symptoms -
I have
been feeling pretty good lately other than the pain down below from baby sitting lower then my others did.
Current Cravings -
This week I haven't had any cravings.
Currently Avoiding -
I am
still avoiding doughnuts and orange juice both give me a very bad upset
stomach.
Belly Button Status -
It is just about out.
Movement -
Baby is moving a lot
now and is getting the hiccups a bunch which is fun to feel!
Any Appointments? -
No doctor
appointments this week.
Any Baby Related Purchases? -
Didn't
buy anything again this week for the baby. Since we don't know what baby is there won't be to much bought probably since we already have boy and girl stuff.

Yay, you're getting closer! Sorry about skipping OJ, but I've heard that that means it's a girl. Wonder if it's true? :)
