Week 15…Baby’s Size
Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby’s legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can’t feel the movements.

How we told our parents the news
I wanted to share our decently creative ways of sharing our exciting news with our parents.
We told my parents first, and it was the weekend after April fools. Seth and I went over to their house for hair cuts and to hang out. After my hair cut, all four of us were in the living [...]
