Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
Well, not much to update. I am still feeling good! I've been playing classical music for Sprout here and there. It's actually fun to do that, because he or she kicks my left side when I play the music. So sweet.
I've been having strong cravings for salads, chips and dip (hummus, ranch, etc.). Yum! I am aching for BBQ season, when hubby will be out BBQing and cooking up cheeseburgers, grilling chicken, and making teriyaki skewers. Mmmmm. I'm also ready for the local market downtown to open, as they have some fantastic teriyaki there. It opens in March, so soon enough I'll be able to fulfill that craving. Nothing beats the teriyaki there! I've been going a little nuts on Pinterest with "pinning" recipes to try (some of which I have now!). There are so many good ideas there, so many yummy looking foods to try!
Speaking of Pinterest, slight off topic from the pregnancy but.. the dishwashing detergent and laundry detergent? Both are working so well! I am so pleased with how well it's working for us, and I don't the chemical scent on our clothes now. It makes me happy to know there's less crap on our dishes and in our clothes as far as chemicals and whatever else is leftover after the rinse cycles!
I've just been busy with Pinterest (it's important!) and then figuring out our spring break plans. We want to hit the beach sometime soon-ish, and I figure spring break will be a good time to go. It may be raining, but meh, we'll deal. I actually like going to the beach and it being rainy sometimes, it's nice. :)
Off to eat. My tummy calls!
