Weekly Wednesday Update 22/40
How far along? 22 weeks
Sleep? It's amazing how much better you sleep when you do nothing but relax & eat all day.
Best moment this week? Being on the beach w/Papa Rob.
Movement: Squishy's getting more active, especially right after eating/drinking.
Food cravings: No cravings, but boy is it great being at an all-inclusive resort when you're pregnant.
Belly button in or out? Still in.
What I miss? Wallace :(
What I am looking forward to? The rest of our time in St. Lucia!
Milestones: At almost 1 pound, Squishy is starting to look like a miniature newborn (lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and even tiny tooth buds beneath the gums). The eyes have formed, but irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside the womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers Squishy's body and the deep wrinkles, which he/she will sport until adding a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside Squishy's belly, the pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily.
What I'm nervous about: Flying (big surprise). I did OK on the flights back & forth to Ohio, but I'm really not a fan of flying over water so this should be interesting.
