32 weeks!! Little Jicama!!

I am 32 weeks today! I am feeling pretty good, I just get tired easily so I am taking it easy this weekend. Here is what is happening with our little one this week:

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, he'll gain a third to half of his birth weight during the next 7 weeks as he fattens up for survival outside the womb. He now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). His skin is becoming soft and smooth as he plumps up in preparation for birth.

  1. So weird to think that your kiddo is now further along than the boys were when they were born.

  2. I know... he's already bigger than the boys when they were born too! I hope he stays in there a little longer, but I'm getting anxious to meet him. :-)
