Keeping it Real

Here's the description of Chum's development this week from www.babycenter.com.

"This week, your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds and has passed the 17-inch mark.  She's rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and her skeleton is hardening."


At least I'm not the only one who thinks unborn babies are kind of like aliens.  Both the pictures on the inside, and the weird body parts that stick out of my belly, visible from the outside - look like an alien invasion.


In other news:  We're at 33 weeks (8 months) and counting.  At 33 weeks, babies are supposed to be the side of a pineapple, but we'll know better when we go back to the doctors next week where Chum is at and what the remainder of this pregnancy will look like.
