This week, your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with her legs extended. She's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing her eyes, and perhaps even sucking her fingers. With more brain tissue developing, your baby's brain is very active now. While her lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning — with a lot of medical help — if she were to be born now. Chalk up any tiny rhythmic movements you may be feeling to a case of baby hiccups, which may be common from now on. Each episode usually lasts only a few moments, and they don't bother her, so just relax and enjoy the tickle.
Wow. Only one week left of the second trimester. Yesterday (8/12/12) I realized that we were 3 months away from my due date! AHH! I'm so excited to be able to hold my little baby soon, but I'm nervous about almost everything else! Will finances even out? Will the baby room be ready? Will we be ready to be parents? In my head, I know faith in God will get us through this, but it doesn't stop me from being nervous all the same.
I still have to get prep work done, and that means getting off my butt and doing it. I do have goals this week to get the baby room cleaned out and the dresser and closet organized. I also need to take measurements for painting. But I will stop there for this week, I don't want to plan to do too much and then be sad when it doesn't get done.
Well I think that is it for today. Hopefully I'll get some pictures up of our progress on the baby room as we get stuff done. Thanks for reading and God Bless!
