Whats happening with baby this week:
December 18th - December 24th

Your baby is now about 4 1/2 inches long and weighs 45g. The neck is complete, and your baby even has fingerprints. He or she is beginning to move around in the amniotic fluid, which replenishes itself every three hours. Foetal movement, or ‘quickening’, can occur as early as this week so be alert for fluttering sensations. If you can't feel them, however, don't worry as they're more likely to occur between the 18th and 22nd week. In subsequent pregnancies, foetal movement is felt earlier.

Whats happening with mommy this week:
Why do I itch all over my body? I itch in places I forgot I had skin!! Everything I read says that the next three months I should feel my best. I'm not experiencing it. My first trimester I felt great. I have felt more ill, I've gotten more sick, and have had my worst headaches and body aches in the last six weeks. Randy has been a doll taking care of me. We are getting ready for Christmas. After Christmas is over then we will start preparing the house for little clovers arrival. I feel like I could sleep a week after all this Christmas hub-bub.
