10 more weeks mama!

Fetal development in pregnancy week 30

~length
15.7 in | 40 cm

3 lbs | 1.3 kg

Woohoo! You can finally see the finish line now that you're in the final quarter of the race!!!
Whether you felt like your pregnancy's been flying by or slower than a snail scaling Everest, you've arrived in your thirtieth week and your baby's cookin' beautifully!
In animal news: the fine lanugo hair that covers their little monkey-like body will start falling off this week in preparation for the big day.
Still, don't be too shocked if your baby ape is hairier than you’d anticipated. Some babies keep their lanugo after birth - which is totally normal, and it will fall off eventually.
Checking in on the fat factory: your little porker is getting even cuter with increasingly pudgy arms and legs, thanks to their ever-growing layers of subcutaneous brown fat.
In terms of numbers, your big ol' baby should be weighing in at around 3 pounds 12 ounces (or more!) and be nearly 16 inches long!
Keep up the good work you two!

And how's mom doing?

Mom had her first major leg cramp early this morning.  Right before the alarm went off, she hurled in the shock of a leg cramp, ouch.  Mom has never had one before and never wants to have one again.  Not sure if its due to the way she was sleeping or just the blood flow.  Her legs are getting full of thick veins - gross but that is ok because the blood is going to Baby W!  Mom is still feeling pretty good, a habit is the minute 9pm hits and she is on the couch sleeping along with drooling.  (Not sure why that has increased) Mom has also been very emotional, anything can make her cry at a given moment ;)  The hormones are in fully gear!  Hormones have also brought mom baby acne - it is little red spots on her face and chest - almost like a rash.  Aunt Chelse has heard that when it is a baby girl they take all of the mom's beauty......
