… was quite large and heavy for her age. Weighing in at 10 oz. and around 7-8 inches (they couldn’t tell for sure because she was being an acrobat and refused to stop doing the headstand on my cervix, but I have another ultrasound scheduled in 3 weeks… that makes 5!)
So they changed my due date to June 22nd… possibly sooner??? So she is gonna be tall like her momma and poppa!
Boy, that still feels weird, momma and pappa… mom and dad… I guess it will until we are actually holding her and someone else says it.
In other news a little over a week ago, my mom and I took a trip to San Fransisco where my Aunt Dao, Uncle Karl and cousin Sydney live. We had a WONDERFUL time. I hardley get to see them anymore, so this was a real treat… and I am already planning the next trip out there just 2-3 weeks after the baby is born. SanFran in July… How wonderful! Did I mention Napa Valley is right there and I will be able to drink wine again??
Anywho… Karl and Dao were generous enough to give me some of Sydney’s things she has outgrown. I will forever be in debt to them. Thank you thank you thank you!
With that, this post is getting rather long, I will have to continue more later. The next post will be just ultrasound pics from the 18th… er 19th week 
18 Weeks
Head to bottom, your baby is approximately 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper), and she weighs almost 7 ounces. She’s busy flexing her arms and legs movements that you’ll likely start noticing more and more. Myelin (a protective covering) is beginning to form around her nerves, a process that will continue for a year after she’s born. If you’re having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If your baby is a boy, his genitals are noticeable, though he may hide them from you during an ultrasound.
19 Weeks
Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces, and he measures 6 inches, head to bottom — about the size of a large heirloom tomato. His arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of his body now. His kidneys continue to make urine, and the hair on his scalp is sprouting. This is a crucial time for sensory development: Your baby’s brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. If your baby is a girl, she has an astonishing 6 million eggs in her ovaries. They’ll dwindle to fewer than two million by the time she’s born.
