Ethan Update

It’s official—you’re starting your third trimester and well on your way to delivery day!

Your Baby: As growth continues, your baby weighs in at over 2 pounds (1 kg). And because his body is more developed, measurement no longer goes from rump to crown, but from tip to toe—about 15 inches (38cm)! Your baby can suck his thumb now, which is actually a good thing! It helps calm him, while also helping to strengthen jaw muscles and encourage the suckling reflex. Your baby can even cry now, but you won’t be able to hear him.

Wouldn't that be funny if you COULD hear him???? Baby cries are coming from the belly! LOL.

Sorry, just lurking around off of Brandi's blog, and I thought that was funny. :-). Hope you have a joyful 3rd trimester!
