10 Weeks to Go!

We're at 30 weeks - only 10 more to go!

We had a doctor appointment today to check up on Baby B.  Our little one had a somewhat sporadic heartbeat so our midwife wanted to hook me up to the fetal monitor for awhile just to check it out.

 

Baby B. was just fine - having a good time being active in there!


Other new developments for Baby B.:

• His/her weight is now up to around 3 pounds
• Eyesight continues to develop, but is still very weak.  Even after it's born it will only have 20/400 vision, meaning it will only be able to see a few inches in front of its face
• Baby's brain is getting wrinkly! Grooves and indentations increase surface area, meaning more room for that oh-so-essential brain tissue. 
• Like the midwife was seeing, the baby stays very busy. Sometimes it is moving so much I can only imagine it's running in place in there!
