25 Weeks

This post is almost a week late but wanted to make sure it got added before it was forgotten.   At my latest doctors visit (24w4d) BB checked out great.  His heartbeat was strong at 160 and he was very active for Dr. Z.  I am up 6 pounds in four weeks (yikes) which brings the total weight gain to 11.5 pounds.  Definitely all baby- or at least I keep telling myself that =)

According to Babycenter.com this is how BB is developing this week:

 

Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but she's beginning to exchange her long, lean look for some baby fat. As she does, her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more and more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture.

Picture from Friday- 25 weeks and 1 day.   Notice the handsome birthday boy in the background??
