Banana Baby

I figure that while I'm at it, I might as well post about Reagan's 21st week. She is the length of a banana now! And while I love our little banana I don't actually like the real things anymore, that is one of my only food aversions I've had thankfully.

I was really interested to learn that the she might actually be able to taste the foods that I'm eating. So I'm planning on eating a lot of different foods, I don't want to have a picky eater on my hands like her daddy was when he was little.

Today we're going to pick up her crib and I'm really excited to get it set up. The chest of drawers and dresser/changer should be in before Thanksgiving. We're planning on painting her room before then too. It's all coming together!

Here is the info on our baby banana!

Baby gulps down several ounces of amniotic fluid every day, both for hydration and nutrition and to practice swallowing and digesting. And, these days, those taste buds actually work! Studies show that after birth, babies are most interested in tastes they've already experienced through amniotic fluid. Meaning, think about what you want your future child to eat as you prepare your own lunch.
