Well, this week one friend told me I looked pregnant as I wore my first maternity skirt to church. Later that evening another friend told me that if she didn’t know I was pregnant she’d never guess. Hmm, which one do I believe? Check it out for yourself in the picture in my new sweater (Thanks mom!)
By this week the little one weighs about 1 pound and should be about 8 inches long. Unbelievable! No wonder I can feel it kick so much and sometimes even see it move now. Travis has confirmed that he definitely felt it move now.
The body of the baby is getting “plumper” as it is putting on fat but it still has a ways to go before it will look like a “healthy baby” because the skin is still wrinkled.
This week the baby’s lungs are beginning to develop rapidly. Although, if born at this point, there is a small chance the little one could live but not without may trails and obstacles to go through. The lungs have a long ways to go before they will be able to function on their own.
