Sweet Baby 21 Weeks
This post may contain affiliate links. Please see my disclosure policy for more information.
Tuesday March 6th, Chris finally got to feel our sweet baby kick! Nothing was sweeter than seeing and hearing his reaction to our little baby girl moving around! She’s very active when I’m sleeping, it seems as if that is when she is awake. Feeling her move is absolutely amazing. I love her more than anything and cannot thank God enough for blessing us with our precious little baby!
About our baby: Our sweet baby’s Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long, the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like she’s practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby’s eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you’re having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well. (summary from babycenter)
