23 weeks

I've been feeling pretty well lately and have enjoyed some normal meals, which I don't remember ever really doing while pregnant with Brenna.  I feel like I'm carrying this baby a lot lower than I did with Brenna, I feel like he just lays in my lower right abd.  I still feel and see him moving around quite a bit.  My pelvis has been really achy and there are days I really struggle to get up from playing with Brenna on the floor.  I know it's only gonna get harder from here.....sigh.  
 

 


LB is the size of a large mango, he weighs just over a pound and is around 11 inches long.  This week the lungs are really developing, and he is practicing his breathing techniques.  He looks like a super skinny, miniature baby now :)  His eyebrows are visible, he can suck and his inner ear is fully developed so he knows if he is right side up or upside down.  If (God forbid) he was born this week, he'd have a 20% chance of survival. 

We have an ultrasound tomorrow, and I've been looking forward to it for weeks!  I can't wait for Nick to see our little baby :)
