baby<3

*baby girl weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space. i'm gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to little girl. 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. her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth

*this week, baby girl measures over 16 inches long. she weighs about 3.3 pounds- (i got an ultrasound thursday and little girl weighs 3.4 pounds! she's in the 49th percentile...wow! doc says if i make it to my due date she will be around 6pounds 10-12oz!) (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. she can turn her head from side to side, and her arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath her skin. she's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. (<that is so true!) Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.

*baby girl's about 15.7 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and takes up more room. her eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. when she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face.

how far along:

*30 weeks

weight gain:

*i weighed myself yesterday and i've gained nothing..we'll see what the doc says about that friday!

little princess(:

for mothers day i got a 3D sonogram. they said it's best to have it done between 28-33 weeks, so i waited and i got to use my mothers day present yesterday!

i got this done when i was pregnant with jaden, even tho he wouldnt let us see him very well i loved being able to get to look at him! (:

i loved getting this sonogram! she posed for us and she was just so cute. i think she looks a lot like her daddy! she already has lots of hair...i hope shes got some curls to go with all that hair!

her posing.

do you see the little finger looking things by her other eye? thats her little toes! shes very flexible!
