21 Weeks

We're having a girl! Her name is Simon Wendelen Brettney Hurst :)
Can't wait for little Wendy!
Your baby is the size of a banana!
At 21 weeks you might be getting a sneak preview of some third trimester symptoms, such as Braxton Hicks contractions and heartburn. While your body preps for baby’s arrival, you’re probably hard at work getting your home ready too. Of course, things like baby bouncers and changing table pads can be tough to choose from, but try not to stress. Baby won’t care if you pick out a playard that clashes with the area rug.
At 10.5 inches and about 12.2 ounces, she's big enough now that you've probably been feeling her movements.
As her digestive system preps for the outside world, she's manufacturing meconium -- the tarry black substance you'll find in her first dirty diaper (ew)!
If it's a girl, she's already got a lifetime's supply of eggs in her womb -- about six million of them!
