15/16 Weeks!

So I've been a bad pregnant blogger. Mostly because if I'm not at work, I'm sleeping... or trying to get my feet not to swell. I'm going to cover 2 weeks in this post since technically I am still 15 weeks until tomorrow.
I had my 16 week visit today and got to hear the heartbeat again. It's definitely reassuring to hear that every 4 weeks. It's hard to believe that my next visit will be my 20 week appointment. Which means my 20 week ultrasound and yes, finding out if baby Velasco will be a boy or girl! I cannot wait to find out and really start the stocking up and registry updating! :)

So 15 weeks:

your baby's the size of a navel orange!

The average fetus at 15 weeks weighs 2.5 ounces and measures 4 inches -- and his proportions are becoming even more normal, since his legs now out measure his arms.

Week 16:

your baby's the size of an avocado!

Now, she's about 4.6 inches long and weighs about 3.5 ounces, and she's big enough that your doctor may be able to hear her heartbeat.
