Last night I decided to bake my doctors office some cupcakes! I think they turned out pretty good!! Here is a picture of my masterpiece(I know youre all jealous) Just kidding! It was easy--and I had a lot of fun making it!
I'll keep you updated on when he's coming--Love you all!
Here's what Caleb is up to in there:
Your baby is still packing on the pounds — at the rate of about an ounce a day. He now weighs almost 6 pounds (like a crenshaw melon) and is more than 18 1/2 inches long. He's shedding most of the downy covering of hair that covered his body as well as the vernix caseosa, the waxy substance that covered and protected his skin during her nine-month amniotic bath. Your baby swallows both of these substances, along with other secretions, resulting in a blackish mixture, called meconium, will form the contents of her first bowel movement.
At the end of this week, your baby will be considered full-term. (Full-term is 37 to 42 weeks; babies born before 37 weeks are pre-term and those born after 42 are post-term.)
