We are at 21 weeks now! Wow, time is flying! What is LBD up to this week? LBD is the size of a banana this week. Now, LBD gulps down several ounces of amniotic fluid every day, both for hydration and nutrition and to practice swallowing and digesting. And, these days, those taste buds actually work! Studies show that after birth, babies are most interested in tastes they've already experienced through amniotic fluid. Meaning, think about what you want your future child to eat as you prepare your own lunch. I hope LBD likes sweets :)
In other fun news, we registered this weekend! This past Saturday, we spent two whole hours perusing the aisles at Babies 'r Us. Eric was such a trooper (I think it was the scanner gun) as we chose between the millions of choices and brands. There is a lot of stuff in there! If it weren't for all of the research I did, we both would have run out of that store screaming and/or crying!
We also bit the bullet and purchased baby furniture. We bought a crib, dresser, and glider (which we will have upholstered to match the nursery). We are so excited for it to arrive so we can get started on the nursery! Here are the pics of what we bought:
