I got this maternity belly/back brace that my friend Bethany told me helped her out a lot. Today's my first day wearing it... it's quite a contraption. But I do feel a lot more supported which is good. I've been having a little pain so I hope it will help out. It does limit my movement more, which means I have to act more pregnant than I am! I get stuck on the floor and need help and I can't bend over, things like that. It's pretty funny if you ask me. So here's another pic (sans brace):
And we got to play with the cutest (and smallest) dog this week!!!!
This is funny...
What changes are occurring with your body?
As your abdomen continues to grow, it will begin moving other organs around to compensate for the growth of your uterus and baby. The top of your uterus is beginning to appear more rounded and is lengthening. Your uterus will begin pushing your intestines up and out towards the side of your abdomen.
How big is your baby?
Your baby is about 6 ½ inches long and weighs 4 ounces.*
What is happening with your baby?
His/her umbilical cord is not only lengthening but also becoming thicker and stronger for these last 23 weeks. Your baby’s sense of hearing is also developing since the ears have fully formed and moved into their final position.
Your baby is also beginning to form adipose or fat tissue. This will help him/her take on a more normal appearance by filling out the fine features that he/she has. Fat is important in helping regulate the body’s temperature and metabolism.*

Jen, If the doctor had to "chase" around your tummy to hear the heartbeat and the heartbeat was so strong, Baby G must be workin' out already!
