I subscribed to Baby Center’s Weekly Pregnancy update where they send me weekly emails on how my pregnancy is progressing.
I am now on my 21st week. My baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long. I can even feel the baby move as the baby starts to kick and nudge which I enjoy every time I feel my baby move. Hubby is really jealous as he wants to feel our baby’s kick also but I think the baby’s kick is still not that strong for hubby to feel it.
During this time, I feel more comfortable as the morning sickness is already gone and I am still not that big to do my everyday activity. But there is an increase in my oil production that is why my acne is worsening. I tried their suggestion of using gentle soap or cleanser twice a day but it doesn’t seem to solve my acne problem. I can’t take any acne medications though as it is not safe for the baby. Good thing there is an acne scar removal cream that I can use after I give birth to remove my acne scars.
It is also mentioned that I more prone to varicose veins now because there's an increase pressure on the veins in my legs. But my mom did not have any varicose veins problems when she was pregnant so I hope that I will be like her.
I am already halfway through my pregnancy and I am excited that we are really that close already in seeing our second baby.
