30 Weeks Pregnant
"Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and he weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds him, but that volume will decrease as he gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus. His eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after he 's born, he'll keep his eyes closed for a good part of the day. When he does open them, he'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means he can only make out objects a few inches from his face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)"
How you feeling?
This seems to be the question that everyone and there mother asks me. I usually respond with a good or alright response but here is the truth...
I feel fat! I know it is for good reason and that every pound means that he is a healthy boy. It just hurts to move, to sit up, to sit down. I wake up at least three times each night and sometimes cant fall back to sleep. The boy decides to have dance parties at 3am and doesn't stop until it is time for me to get up anyway. By 3pm I am DONE with the day and ready to be a zombie.
BUT,
I love this little man and I know that it is totally worth it! I would do this for the rest of my life (which is probably what will end up happening with Mike's super sperm) if that meant happy healthy God-given babies!
