Our next doctor's appointment is in a few weeks but I SOOOO excited we get to set up the appt. for our ultrasound. I have heard that pregnancy brings upon weird dreams. I have always had weird dreams BUT I have really had some weird dreams. When I expressed them to Candice she told me she had very similar dreams. I had one dream about feeding triplets. Another about my brother's death from cancer (which I actually woke up crying real tears and I am goign to have a talk with him) and then the final dream was again with triplets and how I put infant babies to sleep on bunkbeds??? Anyways weird dreams!! I am pretty much always hungry but can't ever decide on something that actually (1) sounds good or (2) tastes good!
Cravings: Starbucks Strawberry Lemonade Blended with Whipped Cream and Baskin and Robins Strawberry or Chocolate milkshakes. Mostly cold drinks. Ice Cream
Aversions: yogart, eggs, M&M Kudos bars
Baby Colin: At around 4 inches long, crown to rump, your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 ounces. He's busy inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid, which will help develop the air sacs in his lungs. His legs are growing longer than his arms now, and he can move all his joints and limbs. That means his hands are more functional, too. Sweat glands are appearing, and although his eyelids are fused shut, he can sense light. If you shine a flashlight at your tummy, he's likely to move away from the beam. There's not much for your baby to taste at this point, but his taste buds are beginning to form. And if you have an ultrasound, you may be able to find out whether your baby's a boy or girl! (Don't be disappointed if it remains a mystery, though. Nailing down the sex depends somewhat on how clear the picture is and the position of your baby during the ultrasound; he may be curled or turned in such a way as to keep you in suspense.)
