This is the only pic I have of myself from the last two weeks lololol Baby is the size of: A head of CAULIFLOWER! (15.5-16 inches, 2.5-3 pounds) Baby's Development: From now until her birthday, Naomi will be developing white fat, which provides energy; this is different from the brown fat she has developed so far, which maintains body temperature regulation.

Baby is the size of: AN ACORN SQUASH! (14 inches, 2 pounds) Baby's Development: Naomi is breathing in and out small amounts of amniotic fluid, which makes absolutely now sense to me, but then again, the whole concept of her being in the womb is beyond my comprehension. Her organs are also practicing for the outside world by absorbing nutrients from the amniotic fluid, breaking down sugars, fats, and proteins to help her grow and thrive.  Momma Symptoms: Swollen legs, ankles, feet, general discomfort from being a big whale lol Weight Gain: +24 Random Life Things: Andrew, Henry, and I have been trading off getting sick for the past month or so, and this week it was my turn.

One of my best friends had her baby girl 5 weeks early this week, which got me thinking. what is Naomi comes ea...
