Banana or cantaloupe?

Welcome to the HALFWAY POINT, folks!

20 weeks!

Baby O is the size of a banana (or a cantaloupe, keep reading to find out why), and is now started to be measured differently, so expect the size to seem to shoot up. Before he was being measured from head to rump, and this week marks the turning point where his whole body is measured. So he is a banana (according to babycenter.com) when measured from crown to rump at 6.5 inches, or 10 inches from head to heel. I don't know what kind of crazy bananas those people at babycenter are buying, but I don't usually find monster bananas that are 10 inches long! According to thebump.com baby O is a cantaloupe, which makes more sense at 10 inches!


We have an appointment on August 2nd for the anatomical survey so I should have some good pictures from that!

In the meantime, baby O is beginning to sense tastes from his tastebuds, and apparently what I eat now will be some of his fundamental first tastes, so that is a lot of pressure on me! No wonder EVERYONE on earth likes dessert! :)
