Not too much new to update on right now. We just had spring break, so I spent a lot of that time getting stuff organized, washed, and put away in the nursery. It is amazing how real everything seems now! We also took our childbirth classes last week - it was so weird to be in a room full of pregnant women! :) Once again, it made everything so incredibly real. 7 weeks left!
Still waiting on pictures from my showers to post...so stay tuned. In the meantime, enjoy the weekly baby update:
Fetal development in pregnancy week 33:fetus in eighth month For all the weight and bulk you’re lugging around these days, you’d think your little champ should weigh much more than a mere 5 lbs and measly 17 inches in height, but nope, that’s about the average size for a baby in its thirty-third week. In terms of appearances, they’re getting cuter and pudgier every minute as they pile on the baby fat for those adorable little wrist rolls and chubby toes. And as we’re sure you’ve already noticed they’re getting stronger with every passing day. Nowadays, it’s possible to observe a well-placed kick just by watching your belly—but you already knew that didn’t you? Although they’re getting stronger, your bigger-by-the-day baby is losing space to move around, so the actual rate of movement will drop off in the last few weeks, despite that powerful drop-kick they’ve been working on. Hey, did you know you’ll continue feeling their movements even during labor?
