Baby #3: 21 weeks

I'm not really a fan of the carrot comparison, because baby is actually much fatter than this.  I guess it's mostly for the length anyway...

I'm feeling:
Nostalgic about Caleb when he was younger.  Weary from feeling larger than normal.  Apprehensive about pushing another child through the birth canal.  Scared about having three children in my care.  Excited about getting in the pool on Monday, even if I am wearing a tent for a bathing suit.

Baby Center says:
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.
