Baby Bump-date Week 27

Sep 25, 2010 by Lindsay

Well I have completed 27 weeks of pregnancy, which means I am officially in my last trimester! We are in the home stretch, 13 weeks (or less) to go!

For those who don’t know Andrew was born 16 days before his due date and Joshua was born 21 days before his….it will be fun to see when Zachary decides to come! I know that each delivery is as different as each pregnancy but do I hope that he decides to come on his own sometime on or before his due date!

Baby Zachary is over 2 pounds and about 15 inches long. Sometime between weeks 27 and 28 his eyelids will be able to open for the first time! He will also be able to tell a difference between light and dark. He moves a lot more consistently these days and I noticed that a few days ago when we were at the beach he moved almost the entire time, he must enjoy the sound of the waves

I still feel like I am in the enjoyable stage of pregnancy before I get too big and awkward. I have tried to intentionally stay more active this pregnancy and I can definitely tell a difference in my ability to keep up with the boys, hopefully that will pay off during delivery and recovery as well! At the end of the day I am tired but don’t feel as if I’ve been hit by a truck Although one day this week Spencer was asking me to dig for something in a drawer under the front seat of the van and I said, “I can’t lean over like that!” haha!

I felt like an overachiever and took two pictures this week!
