17th Week of pregnancy

I am in my 17th week of pregnancy, more than 3.5 months. Chances of miscarriage are less now. Feeling much better and have an increase in appetite. Foods which I used to dislike taste good again. We had another visit to the doctor yesterday. We did urinalysis, blood pressure & weight checkup. Blood pressure was normal. Thanks to the relaxation and meditation techniques I follow everyday. I will write about these techniques in the future posts. The doctor did an ultrasound again. This is what we wait for every time we visit the doctor. The doctor told us that our baby is now fully formed and even has unique little fingerprints! Although it is not yet possible to accurately pinpoint the baby's sex, the sex organs continue to develop. His head was now more proportionate to his body and his legs are longer than his arms. Our baby was so active, that he/she was modeling and posing for us. As if to say “hello there, look at me, don’t I look like the beautiful models?” Indeed my sweet angel!! You are much better than them. Then we saw her/him dancing and changing it’s positions which gave the doctor a hard time measuring him/her. ;) As for us, we simply could not blink our eyes away from the ultrasound monitor screen. It was playtime!!
