Ending 17 weeks

It's ending week 17 (I'm a little late updating).  Not too much has changed...I feel like I'm getting bigger all over - oh joy.  I thought I felt the baby move a couple times in the past week, but it's so hard to tell.  Hopefully within the next couple weeks it will become more obvious.  I have my monthly appointment tomorrow afternoon, which I always look forward to.  Hopefully everything still looks good!  I'll keep you posted!  Until then, here's the week 17 update:Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
