Week 22

Hi All! I know it’s Tuesday (AKA: BUMP PIC DAY!) But Zack is away on business – leaving me short a photographer – so today’s pic has been postponed! But don’t worry, you won’t have to wait too long because G’Ma C will be filling in to capture the pic on Thursday! 🙂

To hold you over until then, here are some fun facts about the baby this week!

22 weeks: Your baby is about the size of a spaghetti squash

This week, your baby weighs in at a whopping pound and measures nearly eight inches, about the size of a small doll. But your little doll (who now has eyebrows, eyelashes, and maybe even some hair on that little head) is a living one who can now perceive light and dark. She can also hear your voice, your heartbeat, your gurgling stomach, and the whoosh-whoosh of blood circulating through your body. And as her brain and nerve endings develop, she may reach for her face (or whatever she can reach) just to experiment with her newfound sense of touch.
