Week 16


Pardon me for the bullets. I had to do this quick post to continue wrapping gifts. Time flies so fast, it's already Christmas Eve and I'm not even half done with the wrapping.

  • babies are about the size of an avocado: 4 1/2 inches long (head to rump) and 3 1/2 ounces.
  • heads are more erect than they have been, eyes have moved closer to the front of their head, ears are close to their final position.
  • toenails are starting to grow!
  • heart pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day and will continue to increase as babies continue to develop
Take a look on how the babies look like inside my womb (can't see pictures of triplets...)

I have already experienced one of the most wonderful moments of pregnancy --- feeling my babies move. It's called quickening and felt it as early as 15 weeks. Others don't feel their baby move until about 18 weeks or more. The earliest movement I felt was the little flutters like popcorn popping. Just last night, the feeling grows stronger and more frequent.

Can't wait for next year, excited to know their genders already.

Happy Holidays everyone!
