28 weeks






Baby, fetus at 28 weeks - BabyCenter



How your baby's growing:

By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With her eyesight developing, she may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. She's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.



1. How Far Along? 28 weeks (as of this past Friday, April 22)

2. Total Weight Gain/Loss? Down 2lbs since last week. :-) Total gain 20 lbs. I must have been having a fat day when I weighed myself last week.

3. Maternity Clothes? Yes, please!

4. Gender? GIRL! :-)

5. Movement? Lots! It's starting to get weird- I can feel her limbs, I'm assuming arms and legs on the sides of my stomach now.  Sometimes her kicks, jabs, and rolls take my breath away. Hubs sees me wincing sometimes at night while I'm lying on the couch.  I think Baby Girl is finally starting to run out of room!

6. Sleep? Looking forward to sleeping on my belly once this pregnancy is over!!

7. What I miss? My energy. Although I feel great, I'm tired!

8. Cravings? Still LOVING fruits and veggies. Don't get me wrong, I still need a sweet treat after dinner (ice cream, pudding, a cookie, something!)! ;-)

9. Symptoms? Very sore and achy down below. I think it's just going to get worse.
  
10. Best moment this week?  Being able to work out 4 times.

    Courtney is having lots of discomfort down below too. She's due in 5 weeks and is so over being pregnant.
