21 Weeks Today and 2nd Anniversary! :)

"Your baby now weighs about 360g. Up until now he has been measured from crown to rump but from this point on the measurement will be from crown to heel – and this week he is about 26.7cm long. Your baby’s eyebrows and eyelids are fully developed, and he can now blink. If you’re having a boy, testes will descend from the pelvis into the scrotum in the coming weeks.

Your baby can now hear your conversations. If you talk, read, or sing to your baby, expect him to hear you. Some studies have found that newborns will suck more vigorously when read to from a book they heard frequently in the uterus (womb). If you want to try, pick a book now and read it out loud. Make sure you won't mind reading it over and over once your baby is here. It may be your baby's favourite bedtime story for a long time after birth.

You're probably feeling quite comfortable these days. This, in fact, may be the most enjoyable time in your pregnancy. You're not too big yet, and the usual aches and pains associated with pregnancy like nausea, frequent urination, and fatigue are for the most part gone. Relax and enjoy it while you can. The third trimester is just around the corner and with it comes mild discomfort from carrying a baby that is nearly full-term.

Passed halfway now yay! Still haven't felt any definate kicks, guess bub has too much room in there lol.
My backs been aching, not to the point where it was a couple of years ago, but getting there. I seem to aggravate it when I'm stood washing-up or leaning over or forward. Guess thats something to put up with for a good while yet lol. Boobies are still leaking a bit at night. I'm still really excited when I catch a glance of my tummy in the mirror and yes a little freaked too hehe.

Well it's 2 years married today :) I made some really nice biscuits yesterday we were eating them in bed this morning :P
