weight: 118 pounds
waist: 34 inches
Your baby now weighs almost 2 pounds (910 g). By this week, its crown-to-rump length is around 9.2 inches (23 cm). Your baby is beginning to put on weight.
The measurement of your uterus is about 2.5 inches (6 cm) above your belly button or nearly 10.5 inches (26 cm) from your pubic symphysis. During this second half of pregnancy, you will grow about 0.4 inch (1 cm) each week. If you have been following a nutritious, balanced meal plan, your total weight gain is probably between 16 and 22 pounds.
We are back from California. We had a great trip. We visitied with lots of family. We also spent a few days roaming through Disneyland, SeaWorld, and the LA Arboretum. It was fun but exhausting ... I am really beginning to feel this pregnancy. I had a few minor contractions while we were away but nothing to really worry over. I am VERY glad to be home.
