I swear I look huge in my pic this week, but it must be my shirt or something. The bare belly pic doesn't look too different from prior weeks! Also this was taken after work, which it seems that I look bigger as the day goes on. The bare belly pic was taken in the morning. Or who knows, maybe I am just popping out!!



Chris was really making me laugh....!



See, no difference I don't think?



I feel like the pregnancy is starting to go by quicker...ahhh!!! :)

See the big picture

How your baby's growing:

Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
