Baby . Decemberists
Week 15 – Oranges!
As predicted, we’ve moved up in the world – from lemons last week to oranges this week. The fetus is about the size of an orange, so the baby websites say. Of perhaps more importance, this is the week that the fetus will start reacting to sounds that it hears around it. That means that when we go to our Decemberists Concert on the 1st of next month, the baby will get to hear it’s first concert as well.
It can also now make a fist. It’s a good thing that it couldn’t hear when we went to the heavy metal concert, because it would probably be sad it couldn’t throw one of these
It’s said that some women can start to feel movements this week, but it’s uncommon.
On a sad note, peanut butter cravings have ceased. I’ve waited for a while to post this, because I found it incredibly sad. The resultant mania that accompanied the peanut butter cravings is now over. Hopefully we’ll get some other strange and bizarre craving soon. I wonder how long it’s going to take to use up all the accumulated peanut butter in the house?

My prediction will be that the cravings turn to spicy….and I am going to come over and put some Sinatra music on very loud so that the baby’s first music is not the Decemberists!

Spicy cravings would be weird- I shy away from all things overly spicy.
And- you’d have to get me to sit through Sinatra music before you’d be able to get the baby to hear any of it! LOL
