Wow, it feels like just yesterday that we found out we were pregnant with our third child. Can't believe in 21 weeks we will be bring a little boy home from the hospital, well that's if I don't come early! I have another Ultrasound on Friday, July 20th followed by another prenatal visit! I seriously can't wait! We've shortened the list of 32names to 5 names that we both liked ... shockingly we had that many in common. I'm hopefully gonna work on some other names, because word got back to me doesn't like ANY of those names really... seriously depressing... That's the hardest part... naming the baby! I'm showing more now... there really isn't hiding it anymore... but that's okay I like this baby bump!
How your baby's growing:
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.
Well I'm sure all be back to post a picture or update a blog, before my next appointment if not fair well till then... all I know is I must keep an eye on my post placenta previa and also make sure this baby gains the right weight! On the upside I have been feeling this little one move and it's really exciting :D
