Week 19: sweet tooth, parent's visit and cantaloupe

It's week 19: 

And we have a baby cantaloupe at 6 inches and 8.5 oz.

Baby's already has developed a sweet tooth! If sugar water is injected in the amniotic fluid, the baby drinks twice as much of the fluid as they usually does. Hm... I seem to have more of a sweet tooth lately too!

I am still waiting patiently to feel the baby kick!

We got to spend week 19 with my parents which was really, really wonderful. We had lots of baby conversations and made lots of decisions. Although, we're waiting patiently to find out if the baby is a girl or a boy to implement all of those plans or start spending!

I am still feeling great this week! My only complaint is just a little typical heartburn.

Fun Fact
When Lucille Ball was pregnant during her run on I Love Lucy, TV censors thought using the term "pregnancy" on air would be in appropriate. Instead, the script called for the actors to refer to Lucy as "expecting."

On to exciting week 20. We'll be half way there and we find out if baby is boy or a girl... finally!
