"Measuring your baby from top to toe with her legs extended, she is about 35.6cm. She weighs a little more than 760g. Your baby's eyes begin to open around now. Her response to sound grows more consistent towards the end of the seventh month, when the network of nerves to her ears is complete. She also continues to take small breaths and although she's only breathing in water and not air, it's still good practice for when she's born.
Since your baby is now growing so fast, and brain development is so intense at this stage, your nutrition is very important. Continue to eat a well-balanced diet that includes plenty of grains and vegetables. Fibre-rich foods, including whole-grain breads and cereals, lentils and brown rice are high in vitamin B and help fend off constipation.
Your antenatal classes should start some time in the next few weeks, if they haven't already. Classes should provide you with good, clear information about the birth and the early days of parenthood. Keeping informed goes a long way towards calming any concerns you may have about giving birth.
Note: Every baby develops differently. This page is designed to give a general idea of how a fetus grows in the uterus."
Feeling well apart from the usual lol. Finished the xmas pressie shopping Sunday yay! Totally tired me out but at least it is done and wrapped. Went shopping in Tescos with Hubby last night, 2 walks in one week! hehe. Today everything aches, partly as didn't sleep much, oh well. I feel guilty if I don't do any exercise and achy and knackered if I do lol.
A few more things have arrived, the play gym which is cute and a couple of small bits. Hubby has finished playing with the wiring for dining room lights so now the floor in nursery should be able to go down! wheee. Still won't be able to arrange it how I want yet though, have to hide the exercise bike and rowing machine in there until after xmas, also bruv's sleeping in there then on the camp bed.
I'm getting really impatient, want my baby now! :)
