Letter to My Baby – Gestational Age 27 Weeks

Dear Baby

This is it! We’re in the third trimester!!! Whoohooo!!

Mummy has been feeling a bit better this week and went back to work yesterday.  She’s still a bit blue, but its not nearly so bad as it was, which is great!

She also had an OB appointment today and got to see you!  Your head and tummy measure right on schedule  and you weigh about 1 kilo!!  So of the 21.5 lbs she’s gained, about 2lbs of it is you!

I also am told that you have begun to practice breathing and will continue to breathe more constantly!  Your brain is also developing its folds and grooves.  And you are about 24cm long.

The other big news around here is that this past Sunday was Mother’s Day.  Daddy, wonderful daddy that he is, got Mummy a card and little teddy bear that says ‘World’s Best Mum’!  He signed the card from both of you, so, really, its the first thing you’ve ever given me!  Well, not counting heartburn, constipation and achy joints :).

And the other, other big news is that today is Daddy’s birthday.  He is 35 today.  Mummy gave him a very big comic book, Doctor Who Action Figures and a video game.  You and Daddy are going to have so much fun together!

So…27 weeks…13 to go…almost here!

Love,

Mummy
