I'm halfway through Week 27 which means I am ALMOST 7 months pregnant which means I am days away from the beginning of the Third Trimester... Yikes! I can't believe the time has gone so quickly!!!
Here's the Week 27 update:
"This week, your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with his legs extended. He's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing his eyes, and perhaps even sucking his fingers. With more brain tissue developing, your baby's brain is very active now. While his lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning — with a lot of medical help — if he 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 him, so just relax and enjoy the tickle."
The other big news is that Paul FINALLY felt the baby kick... He said it didn't feel like what he thought, and I think it might have freaked him out a bit but at least I'm not the only one now who feels him moving around! If I'm lying still on the couch you can actually see my whole stomach move as the little guy twists and turns and jabs. It's pretty crazy but fun!
