All is well in the land of a growing tummy. Whew! It is rather humorous. I got the waddle down and it feels like every day it gets bigger and bigger! His kicks are stronger too.
Sadly, my Pop-pop is not doing well, and he is making his next journey to be with God in heaven very soon. Everytime I am in his room, our boy just kicks and kicks. Tim's Mom, my Mom-mom, my Ducka (other grandmom) and all the angels are probably playing with our little son. I am sad my Poppers won't be able to meet him, but I have a feeling he will get to meet him before we do. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
Congrats to Pat and Kelly, they had a baby boy last Friday! Luke Patrick!
This is whats going on with our boy this week :) YUPPERS...3rd trimester!
Your Baby Week 28
"Your baby weighs about 2.5 lbs (1100g) and is about 10 inches (25cm) from crown to rump and15 inches (36 cm) long from head to toe.
At this time, the baby has tastebuds which allow it to distinguish between sweet, sour and bitter tastes.
Brain tissue and brain development increases at this time as your baby grows the folds and grooves needed for a developed brain.
Eyebrows and eyelashes are probably present and the hair on your baby's head is growing longer.
Your baby's body is filling out, getting a bit fatter as fat deposition continues, but it is still somewhat red and wrinkled.
Your baby is big enough for his presentation to be determined. That is, your caregiver can probably tell how your baby is oriented in your uterus. He may be breech (bottom down) or head first. If your baby is in a breech position now, there is no need to worry as there is still plenty of room and time for your baby to change positions.
Your baby can feel pain and respond to it in the same way as a full term baby. "
Love,
Candace
