19th Week  

Friday, May 9, 2008


I am now 19 weeks pregnant, I've got heartburn from time to time, discomfort at night, always tired and sleepy, so far I'm sure I'm okey and having a healthy pregnancy. According to babycenter week by week fetal development website, my baby now measures around 6 inches/ 15 cm long from crown to rump and weighs about 9 ounces/ 240 grams. My baby started to swallow amniotic fluid, and her kidneys continue to make urine. Hair on the scalp is sprouting.Sensory development reaches its peak this week. The nerve cells serving each of the senses -- taste, smell, hearing, seeing, and touch -- are now developing in their specialised areas of the brain. Nerve cell production slows down as existing nerve cells grow larger and make more complex connections.
Well I halfway there!!! I am excited I had 8 months 8days old baby boy, so I'm praying to have a girl this time. But boy or girl I'll be a happy and blessed mommy.
I'll have my 5th prenatal visit on the 14th, they'll do some blood work and check up, then on the 20th I'll have my ultra sound So excited to know the gender of my baby. Hope it will be a girl.
