How your baby's growing:Your baby weighs about 10 1/2 ounces now. He's also around 6 1/2 inches long from head to bottom and about 10 inches from head to heel — the length of a banana. (For the first 20 weeks, when a baby's legs are curled up against his torso and hard to measure, measurements are taken from the top of his head to his bottom — the "crown to rump" measurement. After 20 weeks, he's measured from head to toe.)He's swallowing more these days, which is good practice for his digestive system. He's also producing meconium, a black, sticky by-product of digestion. This gooey substance will accumulate in his bowels, and you'll see it in his first soiled diaper (some babies pass meconium in the womb or during delivery).
How far along? 20weeks
Maternity clothes? I cleaned out the closet this week and didn't realize many of my dresses will work until I get bigger. Yay!

Belly Button in or out? Innie but as many of my friends are aware, my belly button is very deep. Let's just say it is not as deep as it was pre-pregnancy.
