27w1d


How far along: 27w1d

Total weight gain: 17lbs {yikes!}

Size and growth of the baby: almost 2 lbs. & about 14 1/2 inches long 
From my weekly email:   [S]he's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing eyes, and perhaps even sucking on fingers. With more brain tissue developing, your baby's brain is very active now. While the lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning — with a lot of medical help — if [s]he were 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 her, so just relax and enjoy the tickle

Sex: we have no idea

Maternity clothes: yes

Sleep: pretty good

Best moment(s) of the week: looking pregnant & having people start to comment


Movement: more and more!

Food cravings/aversions: donuts! :)

Morning sickness: gone

Symptoms: feeling much better

Belly button in or out: in

What I miss: running!

What I'm looking forward to: entering the 3rd trimester! :)
