Soooo heyyyy. I have no clue what made me think of livejournal. What in the world. I haven't posted on here in almost ten years! Reading old posts show me I might have matured a little but I wish like hell I could go back to nineteen.

So I haven't updated in a really long time and obviously no one was concerned enough to notice...but anyway, I am going to do the last weeks that I've missed right now ( Read more... )

Your baby now weighs a little under 2 pounds and measures about 14 inches, from head to heel. The nerve pathways in her ears are developing, which means her response to sounds is growing more consistent. Her lungs are developing now, too, as she continues to take small breaths of amniotic fluid - good practice for when she's born and takes that ( Read more... )

Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. His weight - a pound and a half - doesn't sound like much, 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 ( Read more... )

Your baby's growing steadily, gaining about a quarter of a pound since last week, when she was just over a pound. Since she's almost a foot long, that makes a pretty lean figure, but her body is filling out proportionally and she'll soon put on more baby fat. Your baby's skin is thin, translucent, and wrinkled, her brain is growing rapidly, and her ( Read more... )

Your baby is more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound. His skin is red and wrinkled. Blood vessels in his lungs are developing to prepare him for breathing. He can swallow, but he normally won't pass his first stool (called meconium) until after birth. Loud noises heard often in utero - such as your dog barking or the roar of a vacuum ( Read more... )

So, you guys let me know which name you like better...I'm trying to decide between Ava Laura, which is a family name...or Ava Grace.

Your baby now looks like a miniature newborn, checking in at 10.9 inches and almost 1 pound. Her skin will continue to appear wrinkled until she gains enough weight to fill it out, and the fine hair (lanugo) that covers her head and body is now visible. Her lips are becoming more distinct, and the first signs of teeth are appearing as buds beneath ( Read more... )

Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long. His eyebrows and eyelids are fully developed. And you can certainly feel him move. He's oblivious to your schedule, though, so don't be surprised if he starts working out just when you're settling down for the night. If you're having a girl, her vagina is ( Read more... )
