Every week is so exciting... This week we saw our baby boy for the first time, we have since been throwing around names - what a hard decision we have to make! Jon has also felt a kick for the first time... of course I was sleeping when he was rubbing my belly so I didn't get to share that with him, but it is still very special. The baby is kicking a lot more and harder - I am sure this will be a pattern from here on out!
At 22 weeks....
The baby has lots of fun, reacts to everything that comes from outside and sleeps a lot. He is getting more and more fat on his body and his skin becomes less and less translucent. Now he weighs approximately one pound (440 grams) and he is 11 inches (28.5 centimeters).
It's funny that babies at this stage of growth are also already starting to develop reflexes: the grabbing reflex is clearly in place, your little one catches his umbilical cord or his other hand and plays with it.
