22 Weeks
Babys hands have grown bigger and stronger and the nerve endings in fingers have developed sense of touch. He's in there testing out his newfound abilities by touching his face and grabbing the umbilical cord. Other cool developments:
Already raising a little Einstein. Baby's brain is developing at a clip this week and will continue to do so until he's five years old (so loading up on the Omega 3)!
Baby's hair is now a short, bright white crop (Billy Idol, eat your heart out!). No matter what color it will end up—red, blonde, black—all babies' hair lacks pigment at this point.
Baby has started growing taste buds and may be able to detect strong flavors in the amniotic fluid. If you could see inside, you might catch him sticking out his tongue for a taste and then grimacing, a sign that perhaps I should chill on the tobasco.
2 more days till our scan cant wait!! D and I have cleared out the baby room so we can get started this weekend once baby confirms if its blue or pink please pray that the scan goes well on friday as this is the big one where they check brain, kidneys, liver, spine etc..
