29 Weeks


Check out my HUGE belly! Good news this week -- no bed rest or gestational diabetes! I think I would have had a hard time if I had gestational diabetes...I eat well, but have been enjoying my annual endulgence in Somoa girl scout cookies! Yum

As for this week's developments -- They weight about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and are tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Their muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and their heads are growing bigger to make room for his developing brain. Their bones are soaking up lots of calcium...about 250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in your baby's hardening skeleton each day.
