According to Babycenter.com--
"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."
I love the fruits and veggies they compare the size of baby to. I feel like Ziggy is feet down, because I occasionally get an uncomfortable feeling like he/she is kicking me where it hurts! Today I experienced some Braxton-Hicks while at the grocery store, but I think it's because I needed to drink some water.
For the most part this week was pretty uneventful with baby. I just am getting more and more uncomfortable and have to go to the bathroom about every hour.
Eli has been pretty funny. On our way to school we sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" he knows some of the words and has been doing the actions he learns at school. He is also counting out loud. He knows how to count one to ten, but sometimes forgets three and four. He's been very receptive whenever we teach him new words.
