The network of nerves in your baby's ears is better developed and more sensitive than before. He may now be able to hear both your voice and your partner's as you chat with each other. He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs. These so-called breathing movements are also good practice for when he's born and takes that first gulp of air. And he's continuing to put on baby fat. He now weighs about a pound and two-thirds and measures 14 inches (an English hothouse cucumber) from head to heel. If you're having a boy, his testicles are beginning to descend into his scrotum — a trip that will take two to three days.
Happy Thanksgiving! This time next year I'll have a little one to chase around on Thanksgiving - so weird! My mom is just itching to go buy toys on Black Friday tomorrow for Campbell to use next year, she's crazy!
We ordered the crib and dresser/changer - they'll be here on Tuesday! We also ordered and received the bedding and mattress and changing pad. It's coming together! We need to clean the carpets and paint in the nursery and then we can start getting it together!
Pretty much the same is going on with me, no new issues/symptoms! One week away from the 3rd trimester!
