Baby's got a while to go before her lungs will be ready for air and is practicing her "breathing" on the amniotic fluid—sucking it in and out of her lungs. Other highlights this week:
Fat production is in overdrive at this point. Your baby will basically double in weight over the next four weeks! You'll be happy to know the same won't apply to you.
Baby is starting to look more like a newborn as her skin becomes less see-through. Her body is looking more proportional now, although her head is still kinda big compared to her cute little body.
Baby is about 11½ inches long and weighs 1 pound, or about the length and weight of a Harry Potter book.
Lots of deliveries and purchases were made this week, first is the dresser and lamp, also the new crystal drawer pulls
The crib and bedding:
A really cute night light we found at Ikea:
And finally, what every girl needs: CLOTHES!! We got some from my Aunt Pam, cousins Lindsay and Ashley, and my mom.
More exciting news, WE REGISTERED!!! YAY! We have registries at Babies R Us, and Target.
You look beautiful, Eric looks okay...ha! The bed and dresser is wonderful. How exciting to have it up already. Let us know when you have the paint picked out. What fun to register and anticipate the birth of baby Emily. You should feel both excited and scared! It is all part of the process.
