Week 39- Watermelon


Mommy has been praying for your safe arrival and for a safe delivery. Our doctor scheduled me for an induction. We will be going to the hospital at 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, May 14th. The date is your exact due date! We can not wait to meet you that day, unless of course you decide to come before that! Mommy & Daddy have been busy preparing for you. Daddy hung some drapes in our bedroom and got an air conditioner to keep our room cool for you. I made daddy and I twenty freezer dinners so that I can spend more time with you when you get here! Your bassinet is next to our bed and your bedroom is ready. Here are the pictures. Pretty soon you will be in our arms.



Your Baby

Your baby weighs about seven pounds (3.2 kg) this week and is continuing to build-up fat under the skin. The digestive system is now capable of digesting liquid foods and she is busy peeing at regular intervals. Your little one’s skin is now a pinkish-red color. Most of the lanugo (body hair) is now gone and any remaining amount will fall out soon after birth. Although your little one’s muscles are stronger now, there is not much room inside your uterus and she may not be moving quite as much. However, you should still feel regular movements. If your baby is a boy, his testes will have dropped into his scrotum and if your baby is a girl, her labia will be prominent. Your due date is almost there!
