I figure I'll rename this posts since our baby is now officially our little Scott! Referring him to Scott makes everything seem more concrete! WHOA!! Rob and I are having a baby! And it's a boy!
What's New With Scott? Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. His brain is also growing quickly now, and his taste buds are continuing to develop. His lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" as well as cells that produce surfactant, a substance that will help his air sacs inflate once he hits the outside world. His skin is still thin and translucent, but that will start to change soon.
Sleep? I really really miss sleeping on my stomach. Sometimes I find it hard to fall asleep and stay asleep because I can't seem to get comfy! Best moment this week? Finding out our baby is a boy!!
Food cravings: Sweets and steak!
Sex of the Baby: Scott and I had our anatomy ultrasound last Wednesday, which confirmed that Scott is still our little boy!
Belly button in or out? In
Movement: Big Kicks!
What I miss? Sleeping on my stomach! Wine!
What I'm looking forward to: Rob feeling Scott kick from the outside.
