21 Week Belly size

by Cindy

Tummy measurement at belly button today at 21 weeks: 32"

Trying to see if I can keep up to my cousin's measurements as I progress! She's 10 weeks ahead of me so I can review her past measurements as I go along.

Kicking from the boy is increasing and they're right... there's more once you lay down to sleep at night! But right now I don't mind. I like the teammate. We're conquering the Olympics together. 

On that I realize I just typed "they". I seem to be quoting "they" a lot and I don't even know who "they" are exactly except those things I've read, been told or tidbits I remember from other friends who've recently had children.

Here's a little "They Say" list:

1. They say the baby starts moving around at night after being rocked to sleep by your movement all day. Then you stop and relax and they wake up. I liken it to being a sleeping passenger in a car that comes to a stop and that non-movement wakes you up. 
   
2. They say if you drink a glass of orange juice the shot of sugar makes them squirm... our boy squirms when he wants to, not when we demand it. LOL
   
3. They say that baby can now decipher sound and I like to think our boy can because when Chris talks to my belly he does start moving. He loves Chris' voice already and why shouldn't he, that's what Chris gets paid for! His voice. he he he
   

That's all of them for now since, of course, my pregnancy brain is preventing me remembering any more of them I might have rattled off to some poor sod at work today... but they started the conversation, I swear!
