Your Baby This Week
Within two months, the big day will arrive, and baby is just as excited as you are--something you can probably feel from the increasing activity in your tummy!

At almost 4 pounds (2 kg) in weight and 19 inches (48 cm) in length, your baby is nearly filling up your entire uterus. Most of the time, her head will be facing upward, but there's still enough room to somersault now and then. In her spare time, baby is getting ready for her first loving look at Mom, as she practices opening and closing her eyes. Baby's skin is also becoming less wrinkled, as layers of fat continue to plump out the body.

My first midwife appointment/prenatal care this pregnancy is this coming Tuesday. I’m nervous about it. I’m already down to the stage where they have you start coming for visits every 2 weeks. I hope everything goes well and that they will let me have the baby there at the birthing center. Trying not to stress, just putting it in God’s hands and trying to just let him take care of it. I mean there was nothing i could do to make myself get the medical card sooner, and we could of afforded paying for everything ourselves, so there is really nothing else i could have done, so i shouldn’t worry over it, but it’s hard to get your emotions to line up with you head sometimes… probably especially if you are pregnant, heh
