So, I'm almost at 28 weeks (7 months) now, and I thought I would do an update on things that are going on with Monty. Lets catch up to speed first, with things he has already accomplished; like kicking, flipping, coughing, sucking, hiccuping, taking "practice" breaths and his sleep even includes the REM (rapid eye movement) phase which means he could already be dreaming (I wonder what he's dreaming about?).
New this week is blinking and looking around. I'm not sure there is much to see in there, but he is sensitive to light. I've tried the flashlight trick a time or two and his usual response is some sort of movement.
Monty has officially "outed" my belly button.
He has gone through some rapid growth the last few weeks and is over the 2 1/2 pound mark! Not to mention that he is well over a foot long now.
What am I thinking?
When is my next ultrasound.......I have a doctor's appointment next week so I will ask my doctor then. I really would like to get an idea of what Montgomery looks like - I think about it during my down time and it's O-So-Tempting to pay to have an ultrasound done to get one of those cute videos and 3-D pictures. Maybe, just maybe I'll add that to my Christmas wish list this year.
How heavy can he get.........I'm not too concerned about my size right now, but holy-cow can I feel his weight when I do things like sit up, squat, walk fast........etc. It's almost as if someone added a 20 pound weight inside my stomach and said go-for-it! It's a feeling that's very hard to explain, but I'm sure everyone that has had a kid before will understand.
