30 weeks

How your baby's growing:
Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and he weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds him, but that volume will decrease as he gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus. His eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after he's born, he'll keep his eyes closed for a good part of the day. When he does open them, he'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means he can only make out objects a few inches from his face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)



30 weeks, wow. I can't believe how fast its gone by, and that in ten short weeks (hopefully shorter!) we will be meeting Mitch for the first time. Soon I will start washing all of the clothes and other items to prepare. It seems unreal! But I feel him constantly kicking everyday so I know it is real! I cannot wait.

I also can't wait for Katelyn to meet Mitch. She will be a great big sister. I am actually trying to find her a baby doll that she can have that has a bottle and seems life like, but the ones I've seen at walmart are just to creepy! I'll have to keep looking. Here are a few shots of her because she wanted her picture taken while I was doing my belly shot! She's so silly!
