28 Weeks!!

By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With her eyesight developing, she may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. She's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.

Our doctor's appt. went well today, I gained another 4 lbs. bringing my grand total to 11 lbs. Her heart rate was at 132, and I had some slight swelling in my ankles but the nurse said that is to be expected. I think my iron pills are helping with my energy levels, luckily. =) From now until 36 weeks we will be going to the doctor every two weeks! I am just shocked that we only have 12 more weeks!!
