23 weeks


Liam is now more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound - about as much as a mango. I read that we should turn on the radio and dance to the music that with his sense of movement well developed by now, he can feel me dance. FUN! We'll have to do that tonight. I can see my stomach moving . . . often! He seems very active. Hmmm, an active boy. That's no scary! It says that loud noises that become familiar now — such as your dog barking or the roar of the vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze him when he hears them outside the womb. I am sure the hair dryer is already familiar!

I am waking up with numb hands all night long. And only one pair of shoes actually feel "good." I guess swelling is going to be my main issue. I have gotten used to the fire ball (heartburn) in my throat. That's all I can complain about . . . and should complain about!

I ordered a crib!! And a glider. Oh, and the bedding. I can't wait to get he room set up. I will share pictures in a few weeks!
