22 weeks

How far along: 22 weeks 

Baby's size: baby is 11 inches - the length of a spaghetti squash - and almost 1 pound

What baby is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
your baby is starting to look like a miniature newborn. His lips, eyelids, and eyebrows are becoming more distinct, and he's even developing tiny tooth buds beneath his gums. His eyes have formed, but his irises (the colored part of the eye) still lack pigment. If you could see inside your womb, you'd be able to spot the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his body and the deep wrinkles on his skin, which he'll sport until he adds a padding of fat to fill them in. Inside his belly, his pancreas — essential for the production of some important hormones — is developing steadily. 

Symptoms: some lower back pain

Total Weight Gain: didn't weigh myself this week

Best moment since last update: Thanksgiving dinner was tasty!!

Movement: yep! – I feel the baby move everyday

Food cravings: ice cream

What I miss: easily getting dressed in the morning

What I'm looking forward to: some snow!
