Baby Claire continues to grow this week, now at 10.5", and probably about 12 ounces. She's started her new "main job" of putting on weight now, and is supposed to gain another pound this month. Her eyebrows and eyelids are now fully formed, although her eyes are still closed. She's drinking amniotic fluid now, and is developing tastebuds. Not sure if the fluid tastes like anything, but I might have some ice cream tonight so she can try it out...
She's been kicking up a storm lately, I'm thinking she might be the next Karate Kid. I can feel her kick every day now, especially at night, she likes to kick while I watch tv. She gave her daddy his first kick in the face last night, he was laying on my stomach listening to her, and she kicked him in the chin. She better do it while she can, I doubt he'll like it too much if she tries that once she's on the outside.
We started getting some of her furniture this weekend, as soon as it comes in to Babies R Us, she'll have an armoire and a blanket (toy) chest. We also got the fabric to make her bedding, which her nana is going to make for her! Lots of exciting stuff happening, just trying to get everything done before she gets here, it seems like there's still so much to do!
