28 WEEKS (7 months)

Sunday I celebrated my very first mother's day! We went out to this nice Italian restaurant and I had the best chicken ever! I even got free frozen yogurt for it at this great place by church! It was such a great day!

A few weeks ago we finally finished decorating our bedroom! (I just didn't take pictures right away.) We started before I even got pregnant, it just took so long because of orders being delayed, being busy, being sick the whole 1st 3 1/2 months of my pregnancy, and having to exchange things. We've never had any bedroom furniture before other than a bed. We absolutely love it and it feels so cozy and comfortable! YAY! So finishing that was our kickoff to start the baby's room. Its still not done yet, but getting very close!

Other than that, I've been feeling pretty good. Although I do admit that it's getting harder to move around and more uncomfortable at times... but nothing I can't handle.

How big is your baby?
Your baby is about 14 ¼ inches long and weighs in at 2 ½ pounds. This still seems very small, but remember that during the last several weeks of pregnancy your baby will gain a significant amount of weight.*

What is happening with your baby?
Your baby’s brain is really beginning to develop into a more complex organ. Up until this point, your baby’s brain has been relatively smooth, but beginning this week his/her brain will develop grooves and indentions along its surface. The amount of brain tissue also begins to increase during the 28th week.

The development of hair also continues. Eyebrows and eyelashes are visible, while the hair on your baby’s head grows even longer. Your baby is also starting to look a little rounder as the fat storage under the skin continues to develop. This is an important part of development that will continue through the remainder of your pregnancy.*
