27 Weeks Today - Baking a 'lil pot roast

13 weeks 6 days to go!

Here's the update for our week from fitpregnancy.com:
Your baby weighs about two pounds and is about 12 to 15 inches long, about the size of a small pot roast. If your baby were born now, he would have an excellent chance (85 percent) of surviving. He still isn't fully formed and would probably not be able to breath by himself. He would need to stay in an incubator to keep his body temperature regulated, and he would have a weak liver and immune system. (Fact: Babies have more taste buds at birth than they will have later in life. Newborns can sniff out and tell the difference between their mother's milk and someone else's.)

Baby CC is definitely an olympic soccer player these days. We started with adorable flutter kicks and now the big boy kicks have started. :-) For quite awhile as soon as J would try to feel his kicks CC would stop - this funny little game continued until late last week and now Jose catches his big kicks all the time.

For the most part I'm still feeling good though it's getting less roomy and uncomfortable as Charlie grows. Sleeping has been a struggle lately but when J is home I do considerably better. The old bulb tv in our room finally went out so I'm trying new coping strategies to go to sleep :-)
