How big is baby:
By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. 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 (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth. (www.babycenter.com)

first trimester picture collage

I am finally organizing my pregnancy photos! yay for more time! I have my weekly pictures (week 7- 31) being printed as we speak to be put into my belly book! I love looking back and remember thinking I was "so big" and so proud of my belly, and now I realize it wasn't that big! LOL. Well at least compared to now! I look back at 1 these first trimester pictures and I am getting excited to have my body looking that way again (and even better!)

 Of course I am more excited to welcome this little miracle of ours into the world. But looking forward to losing the bump in the front (which I already know I will miss feeling her move around, but I will definitely appreciate fitting into my clothes better!)


So here is the 1st trimester picture collage



Look at week 7.. No stretch marks.. so much smaller than i am now! haha! I love it!

I am thoroughly enjoying this pregnancy! It has flown by and I can't believe on Saturday I will be 32 weeks! WOW!!

How big is baby:
This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
