Halfway there!

Baby Girl Woof is now about 10 inches long. Wow, that's kinda hard to believe. What's even more hard to believe is that she'll be twice that size when she's born. Wooooo, golly!

I was lying in bed the other night thinking: "I want my body back!" I know it's a little early for those thoughts, but I'm starting to feel bigger and bigger everyday. At the same time, it's exciting that I'm starting to show and I even bought some maternity shirts. It's kinda fun to wear them.

Oh, I removed some of the "gross" stuff from this update below - something about a coating and...uh, her excretions. We'll ignore that for now...(while we can!)

20 weeks



You've made it to the halfway mark — congratulations! Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. She's around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom, and about 10 inches from head to heel. (For the first 20 weeks, we use measurements taken from the top of the baby's head to her bottom — known as the "crown to rump" measurement. After that, we use measurements from head to toe. This is because a baby's legs are curled up against her torso during the first half of pregnancy and are very hard to measure.)
