How your baby's growing:
Your baby'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 in your uterus. 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. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)Ok I am borrowing this idea from my friend Lauren, a side by side of me at around 12 weeks (cant find one from 10 weeks) 20 weeks, and now 30 weeks.
I am so stinkin excited!!!! I can not believe that I only have 10 more weeks until my due date! AHHH!
I am not feeling any differant that usual. They typical tired, achey preggers. Starting this week I will be taking Thursdays off. So I am happy for that. After 3 9.5 hour days I am done for by Wednesday nights. And my doc appts are always on Thursdays so it will work out good.
I go this Thursday for my regular exam and if I havent gained any weight again, I guess they might do an U/S to check Erics weight. Which I am not at all worried about because he has been at least a half pound over the "normal" every time. So we will see!
I am excited for a few things this week! Tomorrow I am meeting my friends Laren, who is 7 weeks ahead of me, Kristi who is due days before Lauren and Stephanie and Lyla (who is almost 1 month old now) for dinner! Thursday I am not really looking forward to because I have to go get my teeth cleaned and some fillings done after my OB appointment. But this weekend I have my second baby shower! =) My MIL church group is giving me a shower and I can not wait to see all of the cutsie stuff Eric gets! =)
And then, next weekend I will have my last shower that I am stoked about too!! Then I will finally be able to start organizing his room and getting everything we have not gotten yet. I can not wait to have it all done!
I am having THE hardest time finding an outfit that I want to bring him home from the hospital in. =( I can find a million girl outfits but NOTHING cute for boys. SO we will see what I finally end up with.....Its looking more and more like cowboy boots and a diaper. LOL JUST KIDDING! I will save that one for when hes at home! =)
I am so ready to meet him, and all of my friends little babies!!! I just found out that one of my best friends Heather, who is pregnant with her 4th, is having a little boy!! =) wooo hooo!!
I just got a call from my hubby......and my day just got bad. He went to the dermatologist last week and they found 3 spots that they removed and did a biopsy on. They called him this morning and one is severe, but not yet melanoma, and the other 2 are moderate. So he has to go for 3 different surgeries to take the whole area out. I am trying to be positive and thank god that it is not melanoma. I just HATE that he has to have it done =( and also we havent met our deductible for insurance. So it will not be cheap. Please keep him in your prayers and pray that they get it all!
Ok, I am going to get some work done. Hope you guys have a good week!
Britt
