Baby's size: Your baby doesn't have much room to maneuver now that she's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (pick up a honeydew melon). Because it's so snug in your womb, she isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times she kicks should remain about the same.
Baby's development: Her kidneys are fully developed now, and her liver can process some waste products. Most of her basic physical development is now complete — she'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.
Best of the week: So many things! 1. My Atlanta shower! I enjoyed spending time with my friends and having folks rub my belly! 2. Also, I enjoyed relaxing with Chris during our snow day! 3. Getting pampered by Chris. He loves to talk to Bella Rose when he gets home from work...and he always asks how she is doing when we talk on the phone! So cute! 4. Being back at work!
Worst of the week: Not being able to keep my eyes open. Back aches from standing at work.
Side Effects: Still pretty sleepy and my ribs are starting to ache.
Cravings: Taco Bell
Anticipating: Packing a suitcase! Decorating the nursery! Picking up our remaining items for Bella!
Here are this week's goals:
Continue writing letters to Bella in my pregnancy journal -- I wrote several last week!
Buy the baby book I want from Books A Million
Continue filling out my pregnancy album
Read our new parent devotional
Finish reading pregnancy book (I did finally catch up to my current week) and BabyWise
Find curtains for the nursery
Start gather items that I need to pack for the hospital
Buy items still needed for nursery
Thank you cards
