It's time for my weekly report on what my niece is doing in her fetal development! 28 weeks already! My sister is officially in her third trimester! I can't hardly believe it!!!!! Here's what's going on with Baby Baum this week:
-Eyebrows and eyelashes are now very noticeable!
-Hair on baby's head is growing longer. Some babies are born with almost none at all, while others appear to be ready for their first haircut!
-Eyes are completely formed now. Quite a view from inside!
-Your baby's body is getting plump and rounded. Most of that increase is muscle tissue and bone. Fat will be added during the third trimester.
-Muscle tone is improving. Preparation for the Olympics feels like it is taking place in your womb!
-Lungs are capable of breathing now (but baby would still struggle and require medical attention if born now)
-Talk to your baby often, reading stories, singing songs and more. She can recognize your voice now and will often calm to it later on!
-Your baby weighs in now at 2.2 pounds (1005gm) and is 14.8 inches (37.6cm).
