Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
It's hard to believe that I'm only 3 weeks away from being at the halfway point. I alternate between feeling so excited and ready for Nugget to be here and still not believing this is happening. 17 weeks begins my fifth month and I'm excited that this is progressing so fast! Hard to believe in only 5 short months, Nugget will be here and I can't wait to meet him/her
