15 weeks!

How far along? 15 Weeks
How big is the baby? The size of an orange.
Best moment this week: Miami and the Jets lost on Sunday! :) Christmas is in a few days, so I am sure that will be a wonderful moment this week.
Symptoms: Fatigue
Movement: Not yet
Food cravings: Orange juice in the morning. I can't get enough. I have been doing really good with not overeating and not eating too much junkfood.
Gender: Unknown
Development:   This week baby is about 4 inches long crown to rump, and may weigh about 2 ½ ounces. The body is now growing faster now to catch up with the growth of his/her head. Baby's legs have grown longer than his/her arms and he/she can move all of his/her limbs.  Baby can kick, flail, twist, and turn. Baby's toenails and fingernails are beginning to grow, along with his/her eyebrows and head hair. Bones in his middle ear are beginning to harden, but his/her hearing has not yet fully developed. Sweat glands are begging to form, as well as taste buds. Although baby’s eyelids remain shut, he/she will move away from any bright lights shown directly at him/her.
