Although baby will still remain active, his days of trying out for Cirque du Soleil are nearly over. About this time baby will settle into the head-down position in preparation for birth. Other fascinating facts:
Baby and I are putting on some serious weight at this point. I'll probably gain about a pound a week for the next few weeks, with half of that poundage bulking up baby. She'll likely double her weight in the next eight weeks.
Ever wonder what baby is doing in there these days? She's busy blinking, looking around, grabbing things, making faces, practicing her breathing, peeing and listening to everything around her—pretty much exactly what she'll be doing for the first three months of her life, sans the adoring audience and the flashing camera.
Baby may (or may not) have a full head of hair now. By the end of this week, baby will weigh about 4 pounds and measure over 17 inches long—about the length of a hot pair of above-the-knee boots.
