I think I've felt the first movements - sort of like going through a dip too fast..and a 'tugging' from the inside sort of feeling: really hard to explain!
We have been referring to our baby as 'Stella' so I think its most likely the name that will stick.. We spoke with somebody in Argentina who suggested 'Stella Maris' as it means star of the sea or virgin or the sea & it is a real 'latin' name. We like that :)
Baby Centre says:
Your baby's sensory development is exploding! Her brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. Some research suggests that she may be able to hear your voice now, so don't be shy about reading aloud, talking to her, or singing a happy tune if the mood strikes you. Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces and measures 6 inches, head to bottom — about the size of a large heirloom tomato. Her arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of her body now. Her kidneys continue to make urine and the hair on her scalp is sprouting. A waxy protective coating called the vernix caseosa is forming on her skin to prevent it from pickling in the amniotic fluid.
