25 Weeks

So, Here I am again. I think my stomach grew over the weekend... I was sore for a few days and then 'pop'. The baby was pretty quiet this weekend, so I think he was growing too. My doctor's appt went well last week. The heartbeat is still in the 150's and I've only gained 6 total pounds, which isn't too bad. The baby is kicking now and has been for a few weeks. It's a very strange feeling, but I'm glad to feel it. It puts my mind at ease about how the baby is doing!
Well, here is what babycenter.com says about the development this week: "How your baby's growing:
Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but he's beginning to exchange his long, lean look for some baby fat. As he does, his wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and he'll start to look more and more like a newborn. His hair is probably recognizable now (in color and texture), although both may change after he's born."
