32 Weeks
Wow, only 8 weeks left until my due date, and five weeks to go until Lily is considered full-term and
ready for life outside the womb. By this time all of her major organs are fully functioning except the
lungs, which need just a bit more time to mature completely. My belly is definitely growing every week by leaps and bounds now, and I'm expecting it to simply
grow and grow in the upcoming weeks. Lily is likely to gain about half her birth weight during the next seven weeks or so, which seems crazy since I already feel like she's using up most of the room in there! She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair. Her skin is becoming
soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth, and I can't wait to pinch her chubby baby cheeks! There's not too much longer to wait at this point - I'm getting so excited! The nursery is mostly done now which is also really exciting. I can actually picture Lily in there at this point. Below is my 32 week belly picture.

She is definately poking out there now! I was looking at pics of Aubrey at birth and got to the one of me the week before she was born...it's soooo crazy how much our belly can stretch!
ReplyDeleteI know, it's crazy. I was telling Kevin last night that the difference between my 31 week & 32 week picture is amazing!
DeleteI had to go back and look, and the difference IS amazing! Wow! You should photoshop the pictures and overlay them. That would be cool! You should print all these for the baby's photo album. I started a "baby" photo album with Lawson, but then after Sierra was born, it turned in to the "family" album. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, that's such a cute idea! I will have to figure out how to do that. I have some baby books, so I do need to print out all the pictures to put in there. I figured that I would just wait until Lily gets here so I can print them all at once :)
