How your baby's growing:This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. She weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. She can turn her head from side to side, and her arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath her skin. She's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
And notice the posting time. Yep, I have terrible insomnia.

Wyatt was always the most active just when I was going to bed. It sure can keep you up!
It sounds like everything is going well. Are you planning on having pain meds? If not, find out if your hospital has birthing balls. It was so much better rocking on that ball than it was sitting on the bed!
