Yeah Yeah - 3rd Trimester baby!!!!

BABY
Your baby now weighs nearly 2 pounds/ and measure's 36.6 centimetres from head to toe.
His eyes open and close, he sleeps and wakes at regular intervals and he may suck a finger or thumb.
Sweet dreams, little baby! Some experts believe that babies begin to dream by the 28th week. What do they dream about? No one knows for certain but the brain is active this week as well.
The characteristic grooves on the brain's surface start to appear and more brain tissue develops. Chalk up any rhythmic movement you may be feeling to a case of the hiccups, which are common this week and throughout the pregnancy. Your baby has them but is breathing in amniotic fluid rather than air.

YOU
Since your uterus is now up near your rib cage, you may now find yourself short of breath if you haven't already. Starting now and continuing through the last three months of pregnancy, you may be plagued by leg cramps, haemorrhoid's, varicose veins and an itchy abdomen.

So thats bubs and me this week as we head into the final trimester!! I luckily am not experiencing any of the above complaints, if anything I'm just a bit tired but hey, that could be due to not getting enough sleep!! :)

I love feeling him moving and so does Paul, he kicks/punches that hard now that he moves my/Paul's hand (arm if its resting on belly).
Names are down to a select few now but free free to randomly comment if a cool, funky or classic name comes to you suddenly and you feel the need to suggest it!! :)

So 92 days to go!! talking of days to go, i have an app on my i phone called days until.

6 days until daughter birthday
24 days until our Familymoon
32 days until Christmas
77 days until big boys birthday
91 days until my mum and stepdad arrive
92 days until bubba is due

I reakon that's a very exciting / love filled / family enjoyment time ahead!!!
......................but for now enjoy the moment that is now!

WOW this pregnancy of yours is flying past Shar. It's great to hear that you're still being active because that's important for you and for your baby. You're definitely a great role model for all your family. :o) xxx
