Week 22

Your Baby: Month 5

Watch what you say -- baby is now able to hear outside noise from down in the womb. Studies show that baby finds gentle music and your own voice most soothing. Nipples are starting to sprout, and that little face is fully formed. And, baby's starting to settle into sleep cycles, snoozing about 12 to 14 hours a day. It shouldn't be hard to figure out when -- just pay attention to those kicks as they start and stop.

Sleeping through the night, although Austin has a little to do with this!

What I'm looking forward to:

Feeling 100% better

Milestones: Nothing really, I have started looking at bedding and room decor. Austin and the new baby are going to share a room, so we need to figure out a way to combine double the stuff in Austin's room.
