My friend Tammy asked this and I thought maybe I could find some help for Tammy on here.
I am 5 months pregnant. I want to know where I’m at and things. Is there any sites that A- show the average size of belly? B- Tell me about where my baby’s at
For each stage of the pregnancy? This is kind of weird for me, I have a 23 year old, a 17 year old and a 14 year old! I haven’t done this for 14 years… Thanks for the help! Tammy ( 39 almost 40! yrs.)
My daughters, Nicole ( 23), Tori ( 18) and Becca ( 14) are so excitted! They too want to see where I'm at.

you sound like my mom... my mom has children at 26, 24, 21, 17, and a two year old...
when she first got pregnant again, she was 42... and she was scared out of her mind.. always looking stuff up, and forgot what she was supposed to be "looking" for.
anyway go to pregnancy.about.com
that site was very informative for my mother. and Me.

Your doctor could/should be able to help you with that kind of information. They should be more than happy to include them in listening to the baby's heartbeat and watching ultrasounds.
At 5 months, the top of your uterus should be about the level of your bellybutton. The baby is completely formed and will spend the rest of the pregnancy growing. They should (if the baby cooperates) be able to tell you the sex of the baby, too.
The bookstore or library should have a ton of books on baby development. I'm sure they would be more than happy to help you find a couple.
Have the girls expressed any desire to be present at the delivery? It's something to consider, if you would like them to be there.
I know this sounds strange, but, lots of things have changes in the past 14 years as far as delivery, anesthsia, rooming options. So, make sure you ask your doctor about hospitals where they deliver and take tours and take classes. The loving part comes naturally, but, it never hurts to get a refresher on some of the basics - like bathing, feeding, you get the idea.
Best of luck to you and your family. Now and in the near future. Kisses to the baby!!

www.pregnancy.org has everything you will ever need to know about being pregnant. It has a calendar that gives you different bits of advice for everyday. It will also show you what the baby looks like each week of gestation. It also had Expert advice, live chats, articles and essays, and lots of other helpful information. I highly recommend it.
