06-8-2009 - 27 weeks pregnant

My mood while writing this blog:
ok

This week marks the beginning of the third trimester of pregnancy which is bound to remind you of the nearing of the due date. If you have 27weekspregnant

not enrolled in a prenatal or childbirth class by now you can still do so as this will leave you a month time to complete the class before the due date. These classes will be helpful in teaching you breathing and relaxing exercises which will be especially beneficial at the time of delivery or when you go into labor. This is also the time to improve your diet and include all nutritious food in it to avoid putting on unhealthy weight as well as to help the baby in developing a healthy body.

This week has been an exciting one. Mom has finally your new home a bit more organized and is loving the new space she has. Your room is almost finished! We did about 14 loads of laundry, we had to wash all the new things that have been purchased for you. It looks like you may be a small baby because the doctor has estimated no bigger than 7lbs. You are healthy and so is mom. Mom had to do a special test this week to check for gestational diabetes. We will find out soon how that test resulted. We have finished addressing all the envelopes for your baby shower and will mail them maybe next week. Mom says that you have been practicing your soccer skills. This makes Auntie Taylor very excited. Mom's cat Jet, is getting to know your new things too. He is real interested in this new space that we are calling Lilly's room. Bought a stroller for you this week that includes a car seat. Can't wait to see you sleeping tightly in your new room. Cook baby cook, Grandma loves you.

The baby is about 14.5 inches long and weighs over two pounds by now. The baby’s skin is wrinkled by floating in water and will remain this way until a few weeks after the baby is born as the skin slowly stretches out. The retina develops normal layers which later help in the reception of light images. These layers receive light and images and transmit the information to the brain for interpretation. The membrane that used to cover your baby’s eyes will separate at this stage to form eyelids. A new visual discovery begins for the baby and the baby’s eyes are mostly blue at this stage which will change into their true color some time after birth. The baby also develops a waking and sleeping pattern which might not be the same as your cycle. Some experts believe that the baby begins to dream by the 28th week. No one knows what they dream about but the brain remains active and the characteristic grooves on the brain surface start appearing with the development of more brain tissues. You might experience the baby hiccupping quite frequently now as the baby’s lungs are maturing and the baby is learning to breathe normally.
