By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of his head to his heels. He can blink his eyes, which now sport lashes. With his eyesight developing, he may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. He's also developing billions of neurons in his brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.
You're in the home stretch! The third and final trimester starts this week. If you're like most women, you'll gain about 11 pounds this trimester.
I can't believe that I am in my third trimester. This pregnancy is going by way too quickly. I am still feeling really good and I am hoping that this last trimester will slow down a little bit so that we have time to move into our home before the baby comes.

It seems like it is going so fast because you are so busy this time with Jeffrey, the house and feeling so good. Now that the house is almost done you will have time to move in and get settled. Can't wait until you do so you can get the room ready. The baby set is really cute. Thanks for showing me. Love you.
