By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
Only 8 weeks to go.... 2 months... Wow the time sure went fast!
The baby room is almost ready. We have the crib (thank you L&G) we have a changing table (thank you M&J), we have a rocking chair, and a dresser. So much stuff in so little space. Now we just need to fill it with pretty things. Hershey (our dog) keeps sniffing around all the new stuff trying to figure out if it's for her or not. I hope she's not too jealous when the baby comes.
In the really good news portion of this blog today (although not really baby related) my hubby got a new job! He's going to be making the same amount, but he'll be much closer to home, only 5 miles away, YAY!
Not much else to talk about today, so I'm going to wrap it up. Continuing prayers for our finances would be much appreciated, and thank you to those of you who do pray for us. It is so comforting to know we have that kind of support.
Thanks for reading and God Bless.
