32 weeks!

This pregnancy is flying by. I am going to the doctor now every 2 weeks. He says I am perfectly healthy and measuring just right. We still aren't set on a name, but we have a few we really like. This baby is quite the mover and shaker - she kicks so hard at times it really startles me! Maybe that is a good sign she'll be a soccer star! Here is what babycenter.com has to say about her right now: By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
