21 weeks

It has been a while since my last post...lots going on! We had an event at CFS to honor our friend and fellow crossfitter, Matt Bishop, we raised almost $3,000 for his family! DJ and I had visitors (his father, grandmother and aunt from Delaware), we drove up 101 for DJ's sister's pinning ceremony and finally DJ felt the baby move for the first time!

As of today we are 21 weeks pregnant and looking forward to Christmas!

Baby's now the size of a banana!
Baby's digestive system is busy creating meconium (a tarry black substance made of swallowed amniotic fluid, digestive secretion, and dead cells), which will fill the first diaper after birth. And, if baby is a girl, her womb is now stocked up with her lifetime supply of six million eggs (the number will drop to around one million by birth).

I had a prenatal appointment last week and have gained 13 pounds! The Dr. says it's a little high, but healthy. I don't feel like I am carrying that much extra weight and feel comfortable. I am still wearing regular jeans!! We have an ultrasound appointment this Tuesday and then have another prenatal appointment late January to check for GD.
