- He has been having the hiccups alot more often in the last few weeks, and sometimes they last for a good 15 minutes. That is such a funny sensation!
- He is now about 17 inches long and could be as big as 3.5 pounds. He should be gaining about a half a pound a week until he is born.
- He is getting stronger, in fact he is now capable of gripping with his little fist!
- His brain is now capable of regulating his body temperature, so he is starting to lose the lanugo (fine hair that had previously covered his whole body) that was meant to keep him warm.
We got our new camera in the mail the other day (we had been having lots of problems with our old one), and I am very excited to have time to figure out all the features on it before our little guy gets here and I want to document his every stage of development!
I am also looking forward to using it to capture memories at my baby shower this weekend. My sisters are throwing me a shower at my house, and I am looking forward to showing off the nursery to my family and friends!
Jen you look beautiful! Glad to know he's 'ready to go!'
