Noemi is 22 weeks today and about the size of a papaya. She will stay approximately papaya-sized for the next few weeks. Noemi is now able to hear outside noise. Studies show that babies finds gentle music and their mother's voice most soothing. Her little face is fully formed. And, she is starting to settle into sleep cycles, snoozing about 12 to 14 hours a day, which I can apparently figure out by paying attention to kicks.
How far along? 22 weeks
Weight gain/loss: I guess I'm up 15-18ish pounds. I will check again for a more accurate measure in about two weeks.
Sleep? Sleep is going well. When I was pregnant with Joaquin I was experiencing a strange rib twitching when I tried to sleep so I am very glad that is not happening this time, at least not yet.
Best moment this week? We had a great time at the beach with Joaquin on Sunday. He is getting so bold in the water. It's really cute to watch. I need to get him in formal swimming lessons soon.
Movement: Noemi has really started kicking hard this week, but in a wonderful way. Jay even felt two of the kicks, which was pretty exciting.
Food cravings: Seafood.
Belly button in or out? Still half way.
What I miss? Energy.
What I am looking forward to? I think this weekend I am going to have Jay help me start reorganizing/cleaning out our house and garage. It won't be fun but I am excited to tackle this project so I can create some more space for Noemi (and for us!).
Milestones: Just four months left!
What I'm nervous about: How to juggle all of the items on my to-do list. But, hey, what's new?
