Week 21: What to Expect During Your Pregnancy + Gina's Pregnancy Journey!

Welcome to Week 21 of pregnancy! Baby is now the size of a large banana or a My Little Pony toy! Baby is experiencing an increased in control over their movements movement due to the development of the central nervous system. Baby's hearing is even more refined, so keep singing and talking out loud to baby! Gina shares her experiences with swelling, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other common symptoms of the second trimester. She emphasizes the importance of hydration, and supporting the rapidly expanding body/belly with items like belly bands. This might be a good time to set up a baby registry and start planning a baby shower!
