This week my bubba is 14.2 inches long, this is the length of a cucumber. He also weighs 1.68lbs and is gaining more fat every day. Ezra can now open his eyes and he is now practising his breathing by inhaling and exhaling the amniotic fluid. Little mans testicals will begin to decend into his scrotum this week but should take 2-3 months before the process is complete.
I had a hospital appointment this week and they told me that because my placenta got stuck during my previous labour with Amelia, I have to have a drip during my labour with Ezra. Although I am still allowed to try for a waterbirth (again) so hopefully that goes to plan this time. I'm getting to the point now in this pregnancy where I feel like it's starting to drag on a bit. I'm getting more and more uncomfortable every day and I'm having real trouble getting any good sleep so I always feel tired.Ezra is moving so much more now and my whole belly has started moving with him. I'm pretty sure he's head down already as I'm getting kicked in the rib quite a lot and feel a constant pressure 'down there.' My last pair of jeans that fitted me are now getting too small, so I'm having to live in leggings again. I've never bothered with maternity jeans before but leggings are just too cold in this weather so I may have to get myself some.
