This week baby is about 1.5 pounds and 9 inches long. Capillaries are forming under the skin and are filling with blood. By the end of the week air sacs lined with the capillaries will develop in babys lungs. Babys nostrils are also starting to open up this week, which allows baby to take some practice breaths before its arrival. Vocal cords are now functioning, which is why I can feel those little hiccups already :).
Had our appointment this morning with the nurse practioner, it may be our last appointment with her because we're going to start seeing our OB very soon! Yay, that means another ultrasound soon enough!
Everythings going good with baby and I, we're relaxing and trying to get a lot of sleep. The baby shower is this Saturday I cannot wait to see everyone there and see all the gifts for little baby.
