How far along? 27 weeks finally in the 3rd trimester
Total weight gain: 8
Sleep: It could be better, but lately the boys haven't been sleeping well until early morning when its time for me to be up anyways
Best moment this week: Mom and Dad being here for a few days, and the wonderful time we had with them.
Movement: Carter is very very active, moving a lot in the evening
Food cravings: Yogurt, fresh fruits
Gender: boy… confirmed once again at our ultrasound last friday
What I miss: not having heartburn :(
What I am looking forward to: Carter's arrival which will be in less than 10 weeks.
From Baby-Gaga on week 27:
Your not-so-tiny-anymore brilliant baby(about 2 pounds and 14.5 inches long!) is slowly rotating in preparation to “head out.” Obviously, this doesn’t happen overnight, but when you start to feel an unfamiliar pressure on your cervix, you’ll know you’ve got a fully flipped baby locked and loaded for the countdown to their birthday! Even now, at the beginning of the third trimester, their little lungs are already capable of breathing air while the pulmonary vascular system can provide sufficient gas exchange and the central nervous system can generally regulate rhythmic breathing as well as their basal body temperature. For what it’s worth, at this point in a healthy pregnancy a premature child (with intensive care) could easily win on the show: “Survivor: The Early Years.”
