About 17 weeks to go! I’m feeling pretty good this week. Spike is moving around quite a bit, but she’s not kicking strongly enough so it can be felt regularly on the outside. (As you may recall, the placenta is sitting in the front of my uterus, so there’s extra padding there.) We go to the doctor next week for the 24-week check up.
And here’s a reason to have sympathy for P.C.: Apparently I start snoring before I even fall asleep! I think earplugs might be in order for him.
Here's this week's update from www.babycenter.com:
How your baby's growing: Your baby is more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound. His skin is red and wrinkled. Blood vessels in his lungs are developing to prepare him for breathing. He can swallow, but he normally won't pass his first stool (called meconium) until after birth. Loud noises heard often in utero — such as your dog barking or the roar of a vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze your baby when he hears them outside the womb.
